It isn’t easy to travel with children most of the time. I started my daughter out early on. She was 2 weeks old on a 4 hour car ride. She screamed most of the way but that was alright. I have found that if you take toys that your child really likes it makes it easier. I also found that if you have some one traveling with you that can play with the child it makes the trip much more enjoyable for all involved. My husband plays with our daughter most of the trip, especially if it is dark outside and she can’t color or read her books. We make funny faces and tickles. I have found that this is the best way to have an enjoyable trip anywhere.
