• Traveling with a toddler is no easy feat. That’s why travel toys for toddlers are not just good to have, they’re an absolute necessity.
• To keep a toddler entertained during long car rides, you need to have toys that are engaging and somewhat involved without being too challenging and frustrating. 
• And to make it easier for parents, travel toys should be easy to carry and difficult to lose — the fewer pieces the better.

Travel provides a lush breeding ground for boredom, which is why every caregiver needs a reliable selection of mobile distractions when traveling with a toddler. Versatility is key: They should be quiet enough that they won’t bother other people, are simple enough that you’re not losing or picking up a ton of pieces, and can be safely handled by the child instead of you. Finally, you want them to work for you for as long as possible.

As a person with two young children and a specialist in early childhood development, I have been fine-tuning my stash over many years.

Here are 20 travel toys for toddlers, with age-appropriate pro tips.
