Would it be very difficult for one person to travel alone with a 4 year old. I'm going to be taking her on holiday for a month but I've never done this before.
Is it difficult to travel with a child that age. Do you have any advice you could give me.
Answer
Always remember to pack snacks and a jacket (if it gets even remotely chilly where you are going). Bring crayons and coloring books and whatever electronic gadgets he/she enjoys (my daughter, age 4, loves the Nintendo DS and the Kindle Fire).
We travel frequently by car and have found that stopping about every 1-2 hours is to be expected. They have to get out of the car, stretch, run around (I always pack a soccer ball for playing with at rest stops), go to the bathroom and eat.
I also get on the road as early as possible in the morning. I pop the kids in the car at around 3-4am in their pajamas and by the time they wake up we are 3-4 hours into the trip already. At that point I find a place for them to change into sweats, eat some breakfast, go to the bathroom, etc, and then we hit the road again.
Just make sure you bring plenty of snacks and wipes for cleaning sticky fingers!

Does it take a minuscule moment for electricity to stop traveling through headphone wires after unplugging?
Vincent
If you were to slow it waaaay down, would there be any time difference between when you unplug your headphones from your gadget to when the headphones quit making sound altogether? Do they still play whatever noise they were sent for a brief moment before going silent?
Answer
the way a headphone works is electricity passes through a coil that generates a magnetic field proportional to the current. this field is attracted or repulsed (depending on current direction) by the permanent magnet and this pushes the diaphragm in and out moving air that you hear as "sound". removing the electricity causes the magnetic field to collapse which takes a few microseconds and the diaphragm returns to the neutral position. so, no the music does not continue to play, just a slight inaudible whoop.
