Pre filled or ideas on air travel activity/goody bags for a 3yo (B)

Does anyone have any ideas of where I could but pre made ones or places I can go or ideas on how I can make my own. I don't mind paying a bit for a decent one

This is for a very long haul flight.

Thanks in advance

  • Hi Im in same boat my boy has just turned 3 and does not keep still anywhere, he also does not do pen to paper, colouring etc.
    ive got in his toy lego cars and aeroplanes etc (£1land versions thou so not bothered if they get lost)
    This toy story dough http://www.zavvi.com/10080857.html and used the £2 win of the muller youghurt promo listed on grabbit
    a crayola magic pen drawing pack (like aquadraw)
    a carry pack crayon and pad set (£1land) - in hope!
    and a more expensive item but the leapfrog scribble and write . this was a birthday gift and it keeps his attention

    I have always bought lots of small things and given a new thing every 30mins- 1 hour depending on how long the flight is.
    Some of the things I have bought in the past are Aquadoodle mini mats, hand held etch-a-sketch, mini library of books (Peppa, Timmy Time, etc) paper & pens, mini puzzles, tub of ELC happyland figures, stickers.

    Hope that is of some help, it is all I can remember at the mo!

    We took, Sticker books, the latest Charlie and lola magazine. Lots of her snacks that she liked.

    She was fascinated with the plane, and the inflight food etc, she was 2 in January and we flew in the May. I got a mini Plastercine set from poundshop. She had my iphone with lots of games to play. I got the headphones for toddlers so she could play and listen to the sounds. I was very impressed with her. It was a new experience and she loved it.

    Doubt your going to find anything to keep a little lad happy for a very long haul flight. The boredom will kick in eventually. Although maybe other kids aren't as troublesome as mine. lol, The good thing about long haul flights with some airlines are the videos. Some airlines give u plenty of films and shows to watch. This usually works for a while.
