We travel a lot with Hayden! We have since he was 3 months old and he is a really good li’ traveler.
The longest trip we have taken with him was 16 hours to Disney World. We did it last year when he was 2 and then again this year. We split the trip up into 10 hours one day and then 6 the next day.
We always make sure to take plenty of breaks while on the road! We hit the rest stops and always stop for lunch. When we get gas, we will let him get out and stretch his legs if he isn’t sleeping!
The best advice I have is to bring a portable DVD player and some DVD’s. This has been such a HUGE help during long car rides! I also make sure to get a bunch of little toys (from the $ store or Target) and put in a bag from him. When he starts getting cranky, I’ll pull them out and hand them to him one by one!
We also will hit the library before we go and fill up a giant bag or books he has never read. You can also rent DVDs that you don’t own from the library so those are new to him too!
Then I always have another bag that is full of SNACKS! These always keep my toddler happy! 😉
We are leaving today for a 4 day trip to Branson!
When we go on vacations, we will try to keep to his schedule as close as we can, but it’s not always possible to go back to the hotel for some nap time. Hayden always falls asleep in his stroller usually!
As for bedtime, he was sleeping in a pack n play whenever we traveled until last fall. Now, he sleeps in a bed with us and has no problem going to sleep! We have a pretty good traveler on our hands!
