We just posted a great article by Diana Mercer of Clementine Art about art on the go—ideas for art and craft projects to engage children while traveling. I have to admit, I'd never even thought about trying an art project on a plane or in a car.
Also just published: Roadtrip Rx, a guide to finding the fun in travel with kids.
What do you do to keep kids entertained during travel? What I've found is that preparation is the key ingredient in a happy trip (that and not feeding your 2-year-old 24 ounces of yogurt before boarding a flight—yep, figured that one out the hard way).
