need plane activity ideas for my 4 year old!

We're finally going to Disney a week from Tuesday and I've started putting together a bag of toys for DS to play with on the plane. I'm looking for suggestions for what to put in the bag. I have already Stamps, stickers, a Koosh ball, small manga doodle, our iPad, What else??

Are you flying JetBlue? if so, the TV helps.

Michaels has a lot of small Disney toys for $1-3.

Disney World Guide to the Magic for Kids is a great way to get him excited for all he's going to see and do and it will also provide entertainment while waiting in lines. Hopefully you have a good touring plan and won't have to do that much!

I have the best activity! On easter I got these flat foam eggs and foam stickers. I figured that it would keep my 2and 4 year old busy for a little while for our easter meal at the club. Well they ended up doing it for over 2 hours and not wanting to stop. They are easy to throw into zip lock bags. It takes a little while to peel each sticker and a few friends have said that this worked for their kids as well. Michaels and AC moore always seem to have them - the foam pieces come in all shapes and they don't take up a lot of room.

I have learned my lesson, I used to bring tons of stuff now I only bring their DS's, a few small puzzles, and coloring books. Disney is a short flight and you sould be good with the stuff you have. Chat Icon

Play Doh and Colorforms (if you can find them... They are pretty elusive these days) were my kids favorite things to do Ina plane when they were that age.

Michael's dollar bins have a lot of crafty little things- wooden figures that come with markers to color with, mini puzzles, Disney themed stickers. And since they're so cheap, you can get a bunch of stuff. We stuffed our flower girls' tote bags with these as a gift for being in our wedding. Thank God we did because they were little terrors at the rehearsal dinner. Chat Icon Until ee broke out the coloring stuff and that had them sitting quietly.

ITA, for me an ipad/tablet and some good videos and games would be enough. It's only a 2.5 hour flight and they can easily spend that whole time watching a good movie/a few episodes of their favorite shows.
