When I flew to London with my three-year-old twins I was in a complete and total panic.  For weeks I would lie awake at night picturing nothing but six hours of high pitched screams and death stares. When I asked for advice on how to cope, one friend suggested that I flood the first class cabin with water, freeze it, and hire the escapades to perform. Another friend simply said “M&M’s, Sticker books and Benadryl.”
Like any rational parent with the will to live, I have no shame in busting out the DVD player… so when they grew tired of the doodle pads and pulling apart everything within reach I broke it out and fanned a selection of their most prized Nickelodian shows (cue the sound of angels singing).   What made the DVD even more of a hit were the Califone headphones that a friend told us about.  Unlike other cumbersome headsets, Califone headphones are made for smaller heads and they fit nice and snug.  Choose from a crowd pleasing panda, tiger or bear.  The earphones put a smile on the skeptical faces of my surrounding passengers who, like me, were thankful for a peaceful, scream free flight.
