Official Site of the
Experience has taught us to bring only items that:
- have few (or no) extra pieces that aren't securely attached to the game (or you will spend the majority of your time fishing things off the dirty airplane floor);
- pack easily and don't take much room and
- will hold attention and be reusable (at least for the flight home!).
and Mudpuppy Press Play Scenes, quality Magnetic Travel Games (like those made by eeBoo), low-tech creative fun like children's chopsticks
(let toddlers 'fish' for their goldfish or raisins), crayons and drawing pads and Lacing Cards. Where to find more recommended travel toys? Our selection of high quality, family-tested, recommended products can be found below. Links to reputable vendors with even wider selections of travel toys and games can be found in the margin at left.
Travel Books for Children, equally appropriate for before you go and on the plane, are listed separately.
Have a wonderful trip!

Packing isn't just about WHAT to pack - it's about having the right things to pack! That is to say, clothes and gear that not only looks good, but wears well and packs well. We're working with designers to develop high end children's travel wear. In the meantime we sell Official I'm A Good Little Traveler!™ merchandise via our Cafe Press shop, and recommend for the discerning family travelers a recent favorite find: the global clothing collection from San Francisco Bay Area retailer, Tea. Read more about their design philosophy and corporate stewardship by clicking on the logo below.  |

Despite the overwhelming amount of information out there for parents wanting to travel with children, most of it is presented without considering the kiddos. We are always on the lookout for articles, sites, products, books that recognize that children - even toddlers! - have the capacity to understand what to expect, what is expected of them, and to play an active role in the journey itself. So GoodLittleTraveler.com is chock full of tips and tricks for flying with toddlers, parent guides and family travelogues, gear and gadgets (for kiddos and parents), travel toys & games for toddlers on the plane, travel stories and gifts to encourage little adventurers.
