Then, load up in the car and he sleeps the whole way. But since you are driving 16 hours, I would recommend playing for a few hours before you leave (at night), then drive all night while she sleeps.

Either way you choose to travel, make sure she has a few toys she can play with in the car and some snacks. I had a portable DVD player that usually kept my daughter pretty entertained as well. Oh, and be prepared to make many stops. Good luck!<br><b>References : </b><br> I always tryed to travel later at night so my daughter would sleep, but that doesnt always work either.
