IF you're a parent who's ever struggled<\/strong> to keep a child entertained on a flight, then one mum-of-two has a simple trick that can often ease the pain. <\/p>\n

Laura Oduntan, 37, founded the 5am mama, an online clothing brand that sells loungewear and travel bags for parents and families. <\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The range<\/span> is designed by Laura who runs the business<\/span> by herself from her home.<\/p>\n

Some of her standout pieces include a crochet beach bag as well as items of loungewear like t-shirts and sweatshirts. <\/p>\n

In addition to owning her own business, Laura and her husband have gone on several family holidays with their two young daughters, aged six and three. <\/p>\n

Along the way, the mum-of-two has picked up some useful tips that make flying with children a doddle. <\/p>\n

People are just realising three iPhone hacks that make holidaying so much easier<\/h3>\n

Laura told Sun Online Travel: "When you're getting on the plane, get on the plane last with the kids. <\/p>\n

"People always rush to get on the plane when they have children, but then they're sitting there for even longer and have to stay on the plane. <\/p>\n

"No one will take your seats, so make sure to go through the airport for a bit longer and let them tire themselves out." <\/p>\n

And it's not just families with young children who should board the plane last either. <\/p>\n

A frequent flyer recently revealed that you're more likely to be upgraded if you're one of the last people on the aircraft. <\/p>\n

In addition to keeping her children off the plane for as long as possible, Laura also has an incredibly cheap trick for making plane seats more comfortable for little legs. <\/p>\n

She takes a large muslin cloth – the kind used by new mums to clean baby sick – and stretches it between the seat and seat pocket to create a hammock – as demonstrated in this TikTok video. <\/p>\n

Laura told Sun Online Travel: "I always take a large muslin on holiday as a lightweight blanket for naps, but when my daughter got a bit fidgety on the plane I thought I\u2019d try tucking it in the seat pocket to help her sit more comfortably. <\/p>\n

"I was surprised at how well it held, allowing her to stretch out her legs. <\/p>\n

"I tried it with my 6-year-old, however, and it wasn\u2019t strong enough for her – definitely a hack for toddlers only!" <\/p>\n

This advice comes as other parents and experts share their advice on travelling with kids, including 11 top tips on how to keep little ones happy on a long-haul flight.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile,\u00a0another mum impressed fellow passengers with her hacks.<\/p>\n
