Long flights and children, especially flying with them solo can be every parents nightmare but a few easily packed toys can help make the journey more enjoyable for you both.
Learning Resources Math Whiz Challenge
Parents including myself, love educational games and the Math Whiz is a great game to distract children ages 6 and up on a flight. Math Whiz is a portable and travel friendly product which reinforces a variety of maths skills. It features a large digital display. Maths Whiz includes eight skill levels to help children master addition, subtraction, multiplication and division though a series of fun and fast-paced quizzes. It has a good large digit display, sounds for instant feedback on how you are doing and can also be used as a calculator. Maths Whiz really is a great toy and will improve confidence at maths no end.
