Parents will ensure a peaceful holiday season if they plan ahead which toys to bring when visiting family and friends. This discovery tote cars designed by Helicopter Studios is amongst the best toy to bring. The tote comes with two cars but there is room to add more cars. Also look at A Day in the City tote that comes with 3 wood dolls and 3 skyscrapers. When folded, a 3 to 4 years old kid can carry it around.
A deck of activity cards can occupy kids whether you travel by plane, train or car. It also keeps your kids busy when you are at at restaurant. I saw those in actions last summer when the cousin of my husband brought a deck to a chic restaurant. It occupied her boys until they get their plates. Usborne Children’s Books, a British publisher, carries a wonderful collection for different age groups.
Lastly is the reliable pencil or crayon roll. I cannot imagine a parent not having at least set. Etsy is a great place to shop for rolls with unique patterns. Do not forget to carry an unlined notebook; it eliminates the need to ask for paper.
