Games and Electronics


From Mad Libs to DVDs, these games and electronics will keep your kids 
focused on fun during the plane trip.



  1. Leapster 
    Learning Game System
    : A variety of Leapster games are compatible 
    with this system, which is designed to develop your child’s basic "school 
    skills" while keeping them entertained. The device is handheld for easy 
    packing.

  2. 20 Questions 
    Junior
    : This travel-sized 20 Q game is perfect for younger 
    children, ages 8 and up.

  3. Touch Chess and 
    Checkers
    : Playing regular chess or checkers on an airplane is a 
    terrible idea, but this electronic version allows the competition to continue 
    even when you’re on the plane. Kids can play with each other or against the 
    machine, and the Game Save feature will pause your game if you have to quickly 
    shut it off during takeoff or landing.

  4. Travel 
    Candyland
    : Little kids love Candyland, and this travel-size version 
    makes it possible to play even when you’re in the air.

  5. Magnetic Travel 
    Games
    : These magnetic travel kits like Magnet Dress Up, Tangrams 
    and a collection of dinosaur scenes will keep game pieces from falling beneath 
    the seats.

  6. Electronic 
    Mad Libs
    : This family favorite has a new twist: it now comes in an 
    electronic version! Pressing different buttons results in kooky new word 
    combinations that will keep your kids giggling during the trip.

  7. DVDs: 
    One of these portable DVD players could keep your kids quiet for the entire 
    flight. Plug in headphones so that they can enjoy the movie or doze off without 
    disturbing other passengers.

  8. Card Games: Card games 
    may sound too traditional for your technologically-savvy children, but they’ll 
    love learning the new games from this site.

  9. Disney 
    Mix Max Player
    : This mp3 player is especially designed for kids, 
    who will love listening to music, watching videos, or looking at pictures from 
    their very own portable player.

  10. Games 
    and Activity Sheets
    : Child Parenting at About.com publishes lots of 
    different games and activity sheets that you can print out for your kids to 
    color on the plane.
Taking children on a plane could be the most hectic part of your entire 
vacation. Managing snack time, keeping them quiet, taking trips back and forth 
to the bathroom, and conquering the ear-popping phenomenon are just some of the 
struggles you’ll have to deal with. Keeping your kids entertained, though, will 
be a no-brainer with these fun games and activities that are also airplane 
appropriate.

Other Creative Activities 



Here are some additional ideas and games to keep your children entertained 
while you’re in the sky.



  1. Scavenger 
    Hunt on the Plane
    : This clever game from FamilyFun.com challenges 
    your kids to find items like sleeping passengers, a red dress, dessert, a 
    mustache, and more.

  2. Finger 
    puppets
    : Have fun making finger puppets before your trip, and then 
    pack them in your carry on for silly fun on the plane. Take turns putting on 
    finger puppet plays with your new friends.

  3. Create a 
    Travel  Journal
    : Encourage your kids to keep a journal of your 
    trip. They can write about the flight, draw pictures of the places they visited, 
    and tape mementos like museum tickets to the pages. If you didn’t have the time 
    to maintain the journal in your hotel, the plane is the perfect place to catch 
    up on your craft.

  4. Create your own snacks: Chances are, your kids are going to 
    be hungry way before that snack cart comes rolling down the aisle. Bring your 
    own kid-friendly snacks that you can assemble from your seat. Ants 
    on a log
     (minus the messy peanut butter) is just one idea.

  5. Pack a surprise: Packing a surprise present for your child 
    will create a delightful distraction from the boring airplane. A toy 
    car, stuffed animal, or even a favorite toy from home wrapped up like a present 
    will do the trick.

  6. Take pictures: Use a disposable or digital 
    camera
     to take pictures during the flight. Your kids will have fun posing 
    for funny pictures to document their trip. Just make sure you use the flash as 
    sparingly as possible; otherwise, you’ll disturb the other passengers.

  7. Colorforms 
    Silly Faces Stick-Ons Game
    : Kids can stick on and peel off 
    colorforms to create silly faces over and over again.

  8. Make a map of your flight path: Help your kids draw a map 
    of the flight path you’re taking. You can trace a map of the region you’re 
    traveling through ahead of time, and then try to guess which state or country 
    you’re flying over at any given time.

  9. Build a fort with blankets and pillows: Without hogging all 
    of the pillows and blankets on the airplane, let your kids pitch a tent in their 
    seats. With any luck, they’ll eventually get cozy enough to fall 
    asleep!

In a perfect world, babies and children would fall asleep the minute they 
ease into their airplane seats. In the real world, parents have to struggle to 
keep their kids from crying, bouncing around in the aisles and spilling their 
drinks all over themselves. With these nifty games and activities, though, you 
can keep your children entertained and under control for (hopefully!) the entire 
flight.
