[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 72512, member: 3837"] I would pack safety pops for the car ride. They are lollipops with soft ends instead of sticks so they don't jam down a babies throat. They are also too wide and flat to choke on. I also would pack regular M & Ms & saltines. Give her one of those and then a saltine cracker. She has to eat the saltine to move onto an M & M, but it keeps her mouth busy instead of baby talk the whole 5 hours. Walmart has a portable DVD player for $70 that we purchased when we left for Florida. These were life savers! If you have the extra $, I'd invest in it now so you can use it to the fullest! Be sure to keep baby wipes in the car so you can wipe her off as needed. Face/hands and but* included. I keep a blanket in the car too because my daughter is always colder than everyone else. If you can find a sun shade for the car, that will help keep the sun out of her face. Oh, the coolest toy for this age, I bought if for my son when he was about this age for a long trip to Baton Rouge. A bumble ball. This is a ball that is battery operated and it shakes around. This entertained him for hours in the car. He just giggled and played with it. Once we got to Baton Rouge he played with it inside too. He just couldn't get enough of it. I think they still make them, this was 11 years ago. Have fun! My mother took my daughter in our ride to Baton Rouge. I had all 3 difficult children, she had my daughter and my brother took the 2 oldest PCs. It made for an interesting ride for all of us. You're going to have a blast! [/QUOTE]
