destinations. Flying with young children can be a wonderful experience
for the children, their parents and the people around them. And it can
be a disaster too. The key to a successful flight is parental
preparation. 1. Let your toddler bring a
backpack of their own with some of their belongings. It will make them
feel more adult. That will help parents get them to behave better. 2.
Don’t
leave your child’s “comfort belongings” at home. If you double or
triple check anything before leaving home, make sure you don’t forget
these, a blanket, pillow, toy, any number of particular items. 3.
Bring
DVDs/Movies and a portable device to play them on the plane. Electronic
games are ubiquitous, and can help your child pass away many hours. 4.
Age
appropriate books to read, sticker books, small toys and coloring books
are wonderful to amuse children during plane flights. 5.
Take
plenty of wipes, and a hand sanitizer for clean-ups. Don’t forget
disposable bags. 6.
Take
snacks, lots of snacks. Take plenty for the kids to drink too. The TSA
states: “Baby formula and food, breast milk, and juice are
allowed in reasonable quantities exceeding 3.4 ounces (100ml) and are
not required to be in the zip-top bag.” When you get to TSA security
in the airport, make sure you tell them you have these items to avoid
problems. 7.
If
your child gets motion sickness in your car, count on it happening in a
plane. After checking with your child’s physician you might want to
give your child antinausea medication. Wait until about 30 to 60 minutes
before departure to give them the medication, not before you leave home,
since it might wear off before you fly. 8.
.Avoid
ear pressure problems which can be especially painful for children who
have smaller Eustachian tubes than adults. Have babies either nurse, or
suck their bottles during takeoffs and landings. Other children can suck
on a candy or chew gum. ****************************** Your Disney News: -°o°--°o°--°o°--°o°--°o°--°o°- 21JUNE10 / SunHerald.com
