Definately the in car portable DVD player. Worked wonders for us at christmas holidays. Children's music, (drive you nuts but keeps them quiet) magna doodles are also great.

Have a fun holiday and I hope u return with your sanity in tact.

Get them each their own hand held dvd's & go to your local library & get some out for free & tons of books & healthy snacks & drinks... Try to be moving longer distances at the 2yr olds normal sleep times & take breaks & meals when they all start to get a bit tetchy.  Stop places where the kids can run around & get fresh air outside, rather than at cafes etc that involve more sitting around.  Let the older kids help plan the trip & give them a map each so they feel more involved.  Let them pick places to see & stop at on the way so they can do something special.  I think it might be a slow journey, but if you are on holiday, what is the rush?!!!
