What to Do with a World Traveling Toddler

I don't know who B and I think we are, but we've decided to take our very active two year-old on a 26-hour flight.  In-flight time is only 21 hours.  "Only," she says.

I've been gathering ideas and supplies for weeks.  But I need hellllp.  Suggestions, please!  I have a week to amass goods.  So far, I have:

Coloring supplies
Henry loves to color.  He asks to do it every day.  I've bought some Color Wonder supplies (supposedly mess free) and some good old fashioned coloring books.  And some plain paper.


Miscellaneous Scribbling Tools
Different from coloring, these nifty things will be novel and interesting.  We'll see if Henry thinks so.


Magnadoodle


Boogie Board

Snacks
Cereal, craisins, fruit, etc.  In a fun container.  Like this one.
Books
Henry loves to read but we're very limited on the amount of things we can carry.  Indestructibles, discovered for us by my mother in law, are amazing - light, rip-proof, and super cute.

Photos
I saw a great idea on pinterest to take a small album of 4x6 pictures.  I'm in the process of making a little book containing pics of friends and family.


Tech
Henry can be occupied for hours (jk...minutes?) taking selfies on my ipad.  He also likes looking at all the pictures on my computer.  Also debating a battery extender...just not sure which one to get.

Movies
Who am I kidding.  We all know our bread and butter is going to be movies, movies, movies.  I'm thinking Disney's Planes and Cars.
