We just came back from a little Hawaiian vacation of our own! Thanks to
Maui Baby Rentals for supplying us with some goods! We had 7 hours of flying each way so here's what we did to keep our 3 and 7 year olds entertained. It really helped that we had 8 adults and another little cousin flying with us too though. Going for a little walk always gets the jitters out it seems.
Portable DVD players - fortunately my mom had an extra so each kid had their own, along with our existing stash of DVD's plus a few new $5 deals from Walmart/Target. Finding headphones that fit little ones can be hard, but we like the
Kidz Gear brand.
Nabi/Nabi Jr. - These are kid-sized real tablets that you can download apps from Amazon and Google Play. They have a kid mode so they can't get to anything you don't want them to. Even if the games have in-app ads, you can use the tablet in airplane mode or disable the WiFi so they can't actually get to anything.
Coloring books, crayons, colored pencils (and a sharpener!)
We picked up
IQ Link for my oldest while we were there too. She really seemed to enjoy it.
Looking at all the photos on my cell phone is always a fun past time for them too.
Don't want to bring along all those electronics? We were quite a site at the security line, with 3 tablets, a laptop, and 2 DVD players. You can also rip movies to an SD card and put that in your cell phone. I've used DVD Catalyst to do this and it works well.
