Describe this trip activity or tip:
You can record your child's favorite stories on tape and buy a walkman so they can listen to them throughout the journey.

Bring along their books so they can turn the pages as they listen to the story. For young kids, this is a great way to enhance their reading skills!

Other comments or suggestions to consider:
You can also buy books on tape, although the kids generally like to hear their favorites and you may not always find these.
