A couple of people have told me about the bulkhead being great - it does sound like a great thing to do to let them sit down and play. I did a quick google search for what mom’s reccommended and I found a couple blogs saying bulkhead area is good for letting toddler sleep, like on the floor with blankets and pillows. My mom sister and I will get seats together so it’s not like it would bother someone else. Good idea or not?

We are probably going to get bulk head seats.

I have traveled before with my son. When he was infant I got the bassinet and it was great to have the bulk head seat with the leg space.
Another time I did not get the bulk head and he was 1 yr old and slept on me and I was on the window seat. Very very bad experience.
Last time we got lucky and the flight was not full and we got multiple seats so he could lie down and sleep which of course is not possible with the bulk head because of arm rest.
But my kids, when they are very tired, sleep in their car seats as well. We have had many road trips in which they have slept in the car seats.

Also with more leg space I will be able to stretch as well and may not be as tired so I can help them.
I do plan to use the bulk head area for the kids to may be play but I doubt the airline would let the kids sleep there for safety concerns. When my son was in the bassinet, even with the slightest turbulence, the staff would wake me up and ask to take him out of bassinet.

Besides if you do not like bulk head, you can ask if any willing passenger would exchange with you. I am sure some would like to get the bulk head but I doubt anyone would exchange your regular seat with bulkhead.
