How do you make long car rides (4+ hours) bearable with a toddler and a pretty much disinterested Grandparent? - toddler who is disinterested in food
I'm going to my house with my son and my mother. The trip is 4 hours + / -, my husband, but generally the units are not really with my mother (another story) that works well, then leave us. My son has a habit in a truck, but not all fit on my truck just so we can drive the old car not see through the windows, and so bored and then Pissy. The duration of treatment, we left at sunset (7:30 pm), but until the final voyage to stay awake until 10:30 clock and was generally miserable.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Place in a booster, and is high enough to see through the window.
If you could leave the country in the early morning hours, then maybe, in the evening to bring some snacks and some juice for him. also a few small toys to play with, as some cars, illustrated books, orwhatever that you want.
Hope this helps.
lol, when I shop and has two children and my aunt (in her 70's), I swore I'd never been anywhere with the extremes of age. Someone is always complaining to complain, get Pissy importance and has compared. Frankly, I would not:) It is very difficult. Life is too short for such a agravation

Have you tried to sing?
I sing the voice of the worst in the world and an active child who is not big on DVD. However, since the birth of my son, 2 to about 2.5, he and I were four hours from his father. In their desperation, I started belting the words to everything I could think. He has calmed down, gave me something to do, and took the choir and recognized some of the songs.
Do not play music for children, BTW, because it had a 4-hour journey to convert an eternity! I played my CDs with songs that appear harmless, when he began to sing. And we never sang for 4 hours straight, like my son is worried.
Your mother can not join or not ...
My suggestion is just for a nap or at bedtime to go. Otherwise, may be willing to sing some songs for him and other stories say.
Children: Bring snacks and coloring books, or books that he likes to read. This will keep the kids occupied and quiet for at least half of the drive.
for Grandpa: It is possible that he / she has read a favorite book. Perhaps you could offer a bottle of water when you wear one or soda. You can also light a subject, since opening the weather. Time passes are talking about!
Good luck and have fun:)
I want the things that take your children to be distracted. For my girls usually pounds bring a sketchbook, a few small toys, or a DVD player.

Golden Rule ... Break every two hours. This is not me, who comes from a doctor. Everyone should stop the usual, of course, but the real reason is the route and go a little legs circulation.
This would also flee their small and the ability to some of the boredom.
If the mother does not want to fall a bit, he can always stay home.
Do you have a husband and son each State alone at home without mom? Well, maybe it is time to do the three of you to do just that. A mother of a baby-sitter, if necessary.
You should use the "maximum pressure" when his son, the husband and the mother of all go into the cabin. If your mother is not ready on the way into the cockpit, what happens if you get help there.
With her mother and her husband is not all I can say is OH BOY!
You are caught in the middle and it's time to jump out of the center. He is now married .... What comes first?
Rights. The only difference was the mother-in-law. By awBut ven far apart myself. Attended attend only the functions that choice. Mari and I are married), between 40 years (the man on the highway, but there are times.
Separated from his mother at the time "that" the family wants to go home. You may find yourself going more often.
