Many parents completely unreasonably believe that resting with a child is a complete headache. These fears are caused, first of all, by the wrong approach to the preparation of the rest, to the transportation of children on the plane. Many even the most caring parents sometimes fall into a real stupor if the question arises of how and what to do with the child during the flight.
Instructions
Step 1
If a one-year-old child does not require special entertainment, then older children show not hefty activity and interest in everything new and unknown. Experts recommend taking night flights with the most restless children, increasing the likelihood that a child who is tired during the day will sleep soundly until the very moment of landing.
Step 2
Otherwise, parents will have to stock up on a fair amount of new toys, coloring books, crayons, magazines with stickers, picture books, even a tablet with a lot of interesting cartoons and children's films is ideal.
Step 3
The table in front of the chair can always be turned into an interesting playground for mini-heroes of cartoons or movies, use plastic boxes and bags left over from breakfast or lunch.
Step 4
If your child is inclined to intellectual games, you can keep him busy with stories about the upcoming vacation or educational games, say, in words or cities. A competition called "continue the story" might be ideal. You start the story, the kid continues the phrase, then the word goes to the third character. And so in a circle. You can attract the baby's attention with unknown objects surrounding him on the plane, ask him to give a name to new mysterious things.
Step 5
As a game, mini-charades that can be organized on the spot are also suitable: let the kid portray animals, movie characters, show professions, try to portray thoughtfulness and not guess too quickly.
Step 6
On the plane, everything that comes to hand can come in handy: brochures, magazines, guidebooks, even a card with the rules of conduct on the ship will do.
Step 7
If financial resources do not bother you, you can inquire in advance with the airline if its employees provide special services for the transportation of young passengers. Such planes not only offer a special "children's menu" containing cereals and yoghurts, but also give out all kinds of gaming gadgets, play cartoons, and give gifts.
Step 8
The main thing for the parent is to do everything so that during the flight the baby does not jump out of the chair assigned to him, this will be facilitated by his favorite car, doll, soft toys, consistently given to the young traveler during the flight.
