Traveling with kids is an adventure in itself. It’s rewarding, unpredictable, and, let’s be honest, a tad bit exhausting at times.
Whether you’re navigating airports, waiting at train stations, or taking a cross-country road trip, there’s one modern travel essential that can make the journey smoother for everyone: a portable travel Wi-Fi device.
At Big Sky Nation, we know that parents value balance. While screen time can be helpful during travel, it’s just as important to keep kids engaged in meaningful, educational, and creative ways.
Our portable Wi-Fi devices give families the freedom to use technology wisely for entertainment, for connection, and even for calm during trips.
Here, we list down some smart and screen-conscious ways our travel Wi-Fi products can help keep kids entertained (without turning them into zombies) while you explore the world together.
Stream Cartoons Or Movies (In Moderation, Of Course!)
Let’s start with the obvious here: Video streaming. A few episodes of the little ones’ favorite show on Disney+, Netflix, or YouTube Kids can be a lifesaver on a long flight or during an unexpected delay. From Ms. Rachel and Sesame Street to Bluey and Peppa Pig, children’s programs watched in moderation allow kids to unwind with safe and familiar content, while you stay in charge of the schedule and duration.
Big Sky Tip: Download a few episodes ahead of time, then use your travel Wi-Fi for quick buffering or switching content.
Play Online Games
For the bigger kids, getting to play games while on the go is a big deal! Online games like Minecraft and Roblox offer creative problem-solving and even collaborative play. With a stable connection, kids can enjoy short bursts of engaging screen time, which is perfect between sightseeing stops or on boring rainy afternoons indoors.
Access Educational Apps Anywhere, Anytime
With your devices connected to high-speed internet, you can easily turn downtime into brain time. Download apps like Khan Academy Kids, Duolingo, and Toca Boca World, so the kids can continue learning in fun, bite-sized formats.
Listen To Audiobooks And Kiddie Podcasts
Not every activity that needs the internet requires a screen! Services like Audible and Spotify Kids offer a huge selection of story podcasts and audiobooks that soothe, entertain, and educate. Whether the family is out for a picnic or getting ready for bedtime, streaming audio content is a great way to wind down without blue light.
Create And Share Travel Vlogs Or Journals
Since the TikTok generation is upon us anyway, why not take advantage of that to keep the kids entertained? Encourage the young ones to document your family trip through videos or photos. With Wi-Fi access, they can upload their vlogs to private family albums, or simply send updates to friends. It’s a fun and creative way to make the trip even more memorable for them. Who knows? You might actually have a budding filmmaker or photographer in the family!
Use Interactive Features At Top Attractions
A lot of museums, galleries, and theme parks now have features that allow travelers to amplify their experience through interactive apps and websites that bring history, art, and science to life. From augmented reality (AR) guides to scavenger hunts, portable Wi-Fi enables your kids to learn beyond what’s written on printed or engraved descriptions in a rather fun and exciting way!
