Try making the car a fun place. Stash a bag of treats in the car. For example, when you get into the car, take a treat out of the bag (already in the car) and give it to your baby. Keep the treat in your hand so they recognize you want them to have it...if you set it infront of them, they do not make the connection. Tell your baby how good they are and let them enjoy the treat. When you arrive at your destination, offer another treat, repeating the steps above. Before long, car rides are fun.
As far as how to travel, Scooter has a travel car seat. He is strapped in (hook attaches to harness) but not caged. It is super soft and he even has room to lay down if we are going far. As your baby ges bigger, look into investing in one.
Hope that helps. |
