For the past week or so, my family and I have been on vacation all over the country (at least it feels that way!). We’ve done a TON of driving as well as flying, which results in a lot of down time. We’re constantly trying to figure out new and exciting things to keep my little boy (as well as ourselves entertained!).
We recently had an opportunity to check out a set of travel games from Rand McNally’s new line called The Boredom Breakers. Here is a little more information from the site:
Rand McNally developed the five games based on extensive parent research. Moms across the country were clear about what they like – creative activities that make kids laugh and allow family members to learn more about one another – and what they don’t like – games with a lot of little pieces. The products are designed to bring families together, encouraging conversation, laughter and fun making the miles fly by for moms and kids on the go.

The Boredom Breakers includes 5 different activities including Story Starters, Car Karaoke, Car Game Coundown, and Magnet Message Makers. Games retail from $6 to $12 and can be purchased directly from the site or on Amazon.
Profuse thanks to Role Mommy for this review opportunity!

Ooh! Those look like fun! So much more creative than our standard “find all the letters of the alphabet” game.
These sound like fun. We still play traveling games in the car.
One of the few fun memories I have as a kid is playing games and singing in the car on trips to my grandmas or on our way camping and the one trip we took to Florida (the vacation was a disaster, itself, but the car ride wasn’t so bad).
This helps kids with their immagination – there were 4 of us kids to spur one another on in the back of a pick-up truck my dad turned into a camper.
Thanks for the review, I’ll have to send it on to my step-daughter, they are driving from Connecticut to Florida, with 3 kids, in a couple of weeks… they may like this idea.
