If you are in trouble because of an upcoming plane travel I have some reliable tips you may be looking for. If you need to prepare your little one for the first time airport visit and air travel you should start to introduce some ‘explanation stuff’ in your daily vocabulary early enough to make it smooth and pleasant for everyone, especially for your kid. It’s obvious that you are not aware about all objects and things you can find in the airport area, it’s impossible to know the name of every vehicle used by the airport crew etc. If you are curious and willing to discover some interesting (technical and not only) infos I can recommend Usborne spotter’s cards ’50 Things to Spot at the Airport’. If you are a parent of a future engineer, satisfaction is guaranteed!

50 cards with great and precise images of most important things to spot at the airport from different kind of planes and trucks to luggage and crew transfer and much much more. Fun for kids and grown ups. No chip, no battery, no wi-fi needed. Relatively cheap and easily available. Light and pocket size. Usborne – you are our hero!

Other article offered by same publisher are those colourful, wipe-clean and creative activity cards available in set with a board marker. ‘100 Things for Little Children to Do on a Trip’ as the name could be misleading because the games are suitable for kids 4+ in my opinion. You will find a lot of mazes inside, lovable monsters to draw and numerous imaginary games to enjoy during a trip with a car, train or plain.

Match, spot the differences, draw, search the words, logic puzzles. Great number of short activities to play. We adore it as we travel a lot and we don’t wan’t to use only electronic devices as entertainers.

Have fun!
