I always got the invisible ink activity books when I was a kid. Don't know if they still make them.

And adding an 8 year old to the equation means adding a suitcase of activities for them.

8 hours? That's a suitcase of snacks.

Plus 3 books (1 sci-fi, 1 fantasy, 1 nonfiction), an audio book on Libby, a book of Sudoku games, a book of crossword puzzles, and 2 newspapers (physical of course).

And a new book from the gift shop.
