I mentioned yesterday that my family goes on road trips with some regularity. To pass time in the car, we always make sure we have: fresh music on the iPod; several magazines with lots of pictures; one box of Trivial Pursuit cards; and a hip flask filled with grain alcohol. (Just kidding, we hardly ever take the Trivial Pursuit cards.) We don’t have kids. If we did, we might be looking for other ways to pass the time in the car. What about printable car activities?
Mom’s Minivan is a site dedicated to providing kids travel games and road trips ideas. In addition to details on how to make a cootie catcher and art from aluminum foil, Mom’s Minivan has some pretty great Printable Car Activities, including car bingo and — my favorite — Travel Scavenger Hunt Cards.
The cards are so cool, that, even as an adult, I’m thinking about printing off a couple for our next trip to the Keys. Bonus points for the person who sees the snowman!
