Please note that this is a repost of my article posted on “Kids in the Capital“. Check out this amazing local resource!
I mentioned in one of my earlier posts travelling with a toddler that one of our friends prepared a box of surprises for our daughter to keep her entertained while flying out west. It helped us keep her entertained for a good portion of our 5 hour flight across Canada. It included so many great things, stickers, crayons, books, paper, dolls, and so much more.
SOOOO, in the spirit of keeping this amazing “new tradition” alive, we decided to do the same for our friend’s who will be travelling soon.
This little girl is one of my daughter’s closest friends, she has many sweet passions and interests, but her favourite right now — FROZEN! Who doesn’t love Frozen? It seems as if my family is the only one who has not yet watched the movie. Our little one isn’t much into movies just yet.
So I was on a mission to find some cute, Frozen themed items that would keep her happy and entertained for her long journey. After searching high and low, I came across the following items:
1. Small, clear Frozen themed backpack
2. Hair comb and mirror and hair accessories (Frozen of course)
3. Frozen lip balm (Gotta keep your lips hydrated. Even if you are only 2!)
4. Flash card games by Fisher Price
5. Dora the Explorer colouring book (another favourite of this sweetie pie)
6. Melissa and Doug Crayons
7. Treats
Here’s the final product! Cute isn’t it?
I have a friend who did something similar for the lines at Disney World this past February. She went to Dollar Tree and collected a bunch of little knick knacks and hands on activities for her toddlers to play while standing in the long lines.
