My family and I just got home from a 3 week vacation to Michigan. We fly a few times a year and I have picked up a few tricks along the way. The kids (8, 6, and 3) look forward to opening a new toy on the plane. It can’t be just any toy, it has to be a toy that is plane friendly. I like to find a toy that is smallish, doesn’t make noise, and has very few parts to get lost in the cracks of the seat. Tech4Kids had a wide selection of toys that were just what I was looking for!
Squishy Pops were fun. We had My Little Pony and Dory Squishy Pops in our stash. They come in a cute case and they suction cup and POP when you lift them off the surface you’ve stuck them to.
Mash’Ems were the boy’s favorite. My 3 year old literally asked me every day until our trip if he could open his “squishies” he called the toy. These toys can be squished and twisted and they bubble and blob in all sorts of weird ways. They boys loved the ninja turtles they opened as well as Destiny from Finding Dory. There are Fash’Ems too! My daughter was excited she can collect My Little Pony, Princesses, Minnie Mouse, and more.
Be sure to check out www.tech4kids.com and you will find a whole bunch of toys that will put smiles on your children’s faces. They are fun, inexpensive toys. If you are looking for a unique party favor, birthday gift, etc. check Tech4Kids for more ideas.
Here is a quick video of the enjoyment our kids got from their Tech4Kids toys during our recent plane ride:

Those are so cute. My mom used to save cereal prizes when I was a kid and then divide them between me and my brother for road trips 😉
I forgot about cereal toys! What a smart momma you have!
Totally smart to bring new toys on planes! And LOADS of snacks!
Oh yeah, snacks and toys for the win! 🙂
So jealous! (from MI and it is such a well kept secret in the summer!) Thanks for the hints! I think the element of surprise is a big plus too! (Hopefully they won’t be identical characters! lol!)
Uh oh, I’m sharing secrets! lol It was an amazing beach day!
My Little Pony and Dory Squishy Pops seem like fun! Any of these items would definitely be good entertainment for children.
