I Spy books. They are brilliant.

Eye Spy alphabet takes the boredom out of the journey and averts their eyes out the window also stops car-sickness.

have simple games to hand, car cricket,make words from reg plates,bingo

On long journeys bring plenty of snacks and some toys to keep them entertained

Let them take all portable electronic gadgets

My top tip is to pack a rucksack for each child before a long journey containing favourite toys, some sweets, tissues/wipes and a drink .

Bring electronic game gadgets

get them to draw a map of your journey, trace the route & point out landmarks so they will have a sense of where they are going

pack snacks and drinks

TRAVEL GAMES AND PORTABLE DVD PLAYER

Make sure you take plenty of things for them to do and snacks and drinks in case you get held up at all.

Add an extra rear-view mirror to allow you to keep an eye on the children without having to turn around.

Travel at night whilst the kids are asleep.

if a long distance travel at night as they then sleep through journey or even better over night stay then all fresh for further travel
