Our Miss M is very good at the long trips, as shes being travelling since she was born.
Now when we go away I get her to pack a buucket full of toys she wants to take. Books, her fav stuff and what not. We dont use a dvd player, instead we watch out for trucks, buses.. We play things like what is it? When we see other traffic, what colour is it? And her favourite is the 'racing' game. Its not actually racing, but if we are about to overtake, she pretends that she is racing the vechile we are going by. And not to forget the emgerency vechiles, thats always a favourite, making the sounds and what not. We also do the animal thing too, so we look out for animals, normally we tell her we can see the animal, we get her to find them, and then tell us what noise they make, maybe what colour they are. And when things get really tough we always have a playschool cd in the car for silly sing-alongs.... We do the actions, sing and mix up the words. That one lightens up the trip for everyone, so thats good...

As far as food goes, we take all her fav things. So she likes her grapes, bananas, sultanas, apple and what not. And I always have a treat for her to bribe just incase. So sometimes its some biscuits or something similar.
