I plan to be fully armed when our journey across the northeast begins later this month. The enemy? Testy toddlers and cranky preschoolers. We'll be traveling 10 hours in the car -- each way -- as we head toward New Jersey for my hubby's cousin's wedding.
I have vowed to have every trick play up my sleeve to combat boredom, fighting, and that pleasant 4-year-old attitude. We'll sing songs, read books, listen to stories on CDs, and even watch a few DVDs. (Thankfully, our SUV has a DVD entertainment system in it!)
I'm in search of cool, inexpensive, fun travel toys that will entertain Brendan and Ryan. If you have any suggestions, please pass them along.
Right now, I am checking out the Madallie website. Many of its items are expensive, considering I don't want to drop 100 bucks on toys for a trip. Still, it has some good ideas that I can steal and reinvent on my own.

Ha ha! Yes, she gets the backseat and manages to sleep the entire way.
The boys are stuck together. My seat must remain open so I can watch the DVD player, or, um, entertain/feed the boys in the back whenever necessary.
