And yes, there ...Thanks so much for the kind words! And yes, there are some amazing apps out there that really seems to grab kids' attention. I figure it's actually easier to fly with kids these days than, say, 15 years ago: individual movie screens on board AND smartphones, tablets and apps help out a lot.<br /><br />Thanks for posting your tips!MariaHaskinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05553651568874925337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6165083809333201585.post-80784758940948314142012-05-02T11:15:53.258-07:002012-05-02T11:15:53.258-07:00Oh wow I love this blog!

We both love to travel and were determined not to let having kids slow us down (too much) or stop us from doing the thing we both love to do the most. The last coupe of years, since we’ve both had iPhones (and now I have an iPad) it’s gotten easier, and the main reason is all the apps out there. They love some of the games, like Fruit Ninja and Angry Birds, but the thing that seems to catch their attention most effectively is an app I picked up through my job at Dish. It’s this remote access app that pulls live and recorded TV off the box at home and will let you watch it on your phone or tablet. It’s perfect for long trips in the car or waiting at the gate in the airport, where my kids can watch their favorite shows off NatGeo and Animal Planet, or maybe some old episodes of LoonyToons I have saved on the DVR. For being a free app, it’s priceless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
