Coincidence? I think not.

make friends!

Cally says: Scope out the gate seating area before you choose to wait for your plane and "just so happen" to sit near a family with kiddos. Making friends before you board or even once you are on the plane is awesome . . . having kids entertain your kids on a long flight is magical! 


in-flight entertainment by age

those dang airplane toilets

Cally says: Be prepared for toilet phobia.  My older daughter (who is 4) hates the airplane bathrooms.  This is because the sound of the flushing toilet is really loud and terrifying to her.  An extra supply of pull-up diapers is not a bad idea (I know, I know, for a 4 year old.  But desperate times call for desperate measures!). Either that or prepare them for the strange noises of an airplane. She did fine on our last flight, but a year ago when she was 3 ... forget it!
