[quote=Anonymous]1.[u] Definitely[/u] buy the child his own seat and bring his carseat, as well as a comfy blanket or stiffed animal.

2. Bring a roll of painter's tape and let him put pieces of tape on himself, the tray table,  the window, etc. It is painter's tape, so it co,es off easily.

3. Walk the aisle every hour when he's not sleeping.

4. Bring tons of snacks, and request drinks as often as possible.

5. Bring some type of sensory toy or a "busy book" that has snaps, zippers, soft surfaces, etc.

6. If he uses a pacifier, bring a minimum of three.

7. Bring a minimum of two extra changes of clothes for each of you, as well as plenty of diapers.

8. Bring at least two extra pairs of socks. You can hide things in a sock and ask your child to get the item out. It doesn't take up much extra room in your carry-on to put a few small toys and a few extra socks in there.

9. Require sleep times, and you should sleep, too.

10. Bring some chocolate chips to use as "incentives" for not screaming. Yes, like a dog treat. It works![/quote]
