ACTIVITY BACKPACKS

We spent weeks finding just the right components to fill our Activity Backpacks for Young Travelers—one for ages 2–3 and one for ages 4–6. Guaranteed to provide hours of fun and to keep kids busy on a plane, car, or train; or any time when they’re bored, restless, or run out of things to do. Best of all, everything can be used long after vacation. Each backpack is filled with dozens of activities, yet isn’t too heavy for a kid to carry—and we’ve left just a little space for a child’s own cuddly. Best of all, we (editors who often travel with young children) “road tested” each item on our own little ones. Dozens of items didn’t make the cut; these are the proven winners. We’ve packed everything into a bright blue backpack (made with PVC-free cotton fabrics and toxic-free dyes).
