Avyaya's first trip to Tanzania

On 21st may 2014 , Avyaya and myself started from muscat to Tanzania . It's almost 7hours journey . I was paranoid as in, how will I manage my 2 years old super naughty son. I tried searching through net and also asked my friends and family members who had the experience of travelling with the toddlers.  I got some brilliant ideas. For example:-

Download some videos for your kid to watch while in the plane.

Take an empty bottle and 2-3 strips of stickers. Once in the plane , give them to the kid. It will keep him occupied for some time.

When air hostess starts serving drinks ask for an extra disposable glass , ice cubes and straws. Mostly the ice cubes have a whole in it so kids love to put the straw in it and pull .

Wrap small toys in a appear seperately like a gift. And give them to your kid one at a time. He will open the wrapper and play with the toy.opening the wrapper is fun game .

Take pencil colours or crayons along with asketch book.

These are few ideas I gathered. But I could use none. Thanks to the almighty! Avyaya was very well behaved and quiet the whole time.

He played with his toy cars and ate chips. Slept for an hour. And then played again.
