20 Educational Travel Toys for 5-Year-Olds

We’re preparing for two upcoming flights in less than a week. Our four-year-old is a temperamental toddler, so I can’t wait for him to turn five this year. In anticipation of traveling with a five-year-old, we decided to write a guide on the best travel toys for 5 year olds.

Our toddler has flown on over 100 flights, so he’s a professional traveler now. Flying with a toddler isn’t as daunting as it seems, although they test your patience and sanity.

For us, travel day is a free day. Although there are rules, we are more flexible because it can be a long day for everyone, so we give our little guy some grace.

One of the ways we make flying with a toddler easier is by having plenty of toys, games, and activities to keep him busy.

We try to buy fun and educational toys for our little ones. If you want to decrease your preschooler’s screen time, here are some of the best travel toys for 5-year-olds.
