Playing around on the internets and came up with some handy items that I plan to take on our next long haul place ride. My kids will be starting school soon after we arrive at post, so they will be carrying their school backpacks. Within will be pencil cases with supplies for school, Lego for the lego mad son and playmobil girl pack for his sister. Also a sweet Russian coloring book, composition books for writing and drawing for both. The striped shirts are a handy trick - I have always dressed all the kids in similar clothes or colors while traveling - it helps me keep track of them. I fear this could be our last move I can easily - on purpose - get away with it.
