at the young age of 2.5, madeline is a seasoned traveller. she has already flown back and forth to the united states five times (let's see...seattle at 8 months, my parents in missouri at 10 months, my grandmother in iowa at 11 months, cape cod/boston and family in philadelphia at 19 months, back to missouri at 2 years, back to missouri again at 26 months). she has also flown to madrid at 6 months, copenhagen at 16 months, milan at 26 months, and egypt at 27 months. i think there may be other trips that i'm forgetting. isn't that scary?
at some point along the line, i wrote my top tips for travelling on a plane with a baby.i've had several friends say they've used these on their own adventures and have found them useful. a friend just pointed me to a website dedicated to travel with children and on this site they also have a bunch of great articles around this same topic:
ten tips for keeping toddlers occupied on a plane
air travel with babies, toddlers and kids
these are well worth a read before you find yourself trapped on an airplane with a small friend for what seems like an eternity.
