My best tip is to give your child their own small rucksack or case to carry everywhere, containing a small soft toy, a few books, crayons and the little toys that they don't get to play with at home because "they'll end up in the bin".
With a little encouragement, your little traveller will soon get into the habit of pulling out their books or toys and entertaining themselves when Mum or Dad is "being boring". If the toys get lost or broken, then it's no great loss. The soft toy will help them relax on journeys.
