Activities for the Car

I don't know what your car rides are like, but ours can be a little chaotic at times:)  Cheerios and Goldfish litter the floor and two little girls giggle, scream and demand all sorts of things from Mommy.   I finally decided it was time to put together a set of activities and resources JUST for the car!

First on the list is the Aquadoodle, a gift from Grandma Moffatt!  We love this!!  Thanks Grandma!!  Just put a little water in the pen and you are good to go!  Kids can doodle with out the mess!  I especially love this because my 23 month old can't draw all over her legs with it:)  You can even pick them up at Target.

I also love this Road Trip Bingo game Tamara at TLC posted about!  Just print, laminate and kids will be busy looking for all sorts of objects and signs!  My 4 year old will LOVE this!!

As far as those messy snacks go...why not try a cheerio bracelet?  Just use a pipe cleaner, add cheerios and twist together.  This will easily buy you 10 minutes of mess-free snack time!

Wait, wait!  Save that for our car ride!

We always have tons of books in the car.  Here are a few the girls' favorites:

   

I would love to hear what you do to keep sane in the car!
