I have found long car trips to be a little hard on everyone, especially the children. When everyone is awake you can get a fun group game going. But there are times when each person just wants a little time to themselves to do their own thing or do something different, and that’s when tech comes in really handy. And in the case of the solo child passenger, tech can really fill the void when it comes to entertainment. We’re in a big travel season right now. Not only is it a long holiday weekend, but it’s also summer vacation. So there are lots of people on the roads. I’ve compiled the 5 hottest Disney apps out there right now, sure to delight little travelers. These apps are free however they also contain in-app purchases that cost real money.
