How do my kids stop getting plane sick???

Question

we are going on a 5 and half hour flight. all my six kids get plane sick! how do i stop this??

Answer 1

Don't take them...leave them with the McCanns baby minding service....?

Answer 2

Get them to concentrate on something other then flying. Like closing their eyes, looking outside the window..

try giving them something to play with.. just to distract them from the actually flying..

Answer 3

Dramamine. It's for motion sickness.  Sure helps me for traveling.

Answer 4

Purchase some travel sickness pills from your local chemist. They work for my son.

They also do magnetic wristbands but I am a little sceptical of them.

Answer 5

Go to your local drugstore and ask them for a bottle of generic meclizine - it's the active ingredient in the drug Bonine, which works far better than Dramamine (it causes less drowsiness and lasts longer). Follow the dosing instructions on the bottle.

If they don't have generic meclizine, just buy the Bonine (you can find it at Walgreens, Rite Aid, local pharmacies, etc.).

Best of luck to you.

Answer 6

keep their mind off travelling when taking of and landing. after take off if they don't like looking out the window maybe you should pull the blind down. okii =]

Answer 7

Since im a kid..I feel the PAIINN! Anyway chew gum, a chew-able tablet (such as Joy-Rides), a swallowable tablet and one to suck. Girls are almost twice as likely to suffer as boys (1.7:1). So if u have girls and they whine a lot on the airplane. Don't say "stop whining". They get twice as much pain as the boys.

The link is for boys and girls:

Answer 8

get joyrides....little pink travel sickness pills made for children...or those wrists bands that work on acupressure. I've never believed they would work but I've used them as I get sick on bus journeys (I still do and I'm in my 20's!) and they are fab.
