Do roadtrips featuring endless rounds of "Punchbuggy," "The Name Game"
and "99 Bottles of Beer" make you ache for a portable day-care center?
It's time for MomsMinivan.com. This site strives to make cruising with
kids fun, or at least somewhat tolerable. Print out cards for bingo games,
find instructions for making finger-string figures, and learn how to make
a cootie catcher (which should come in handy for those truckstop restrooms.)
Carsick kids? They've got help for that too.

That cumbersome symbol of
the American family, the
minivan now has its own
website. Only in America, I
say. I’m not making fun
of them I have one. What I
like is that this site is
not discriminatory; it is an
equal opportunity kid appeaser.
(If there is such a
word.) This is the time
of year when you get to find
out just how roomy those
vans are or aren’t as the
case may be. If you don’t
have a van, television for
the car or are just plain
nervous about traveling
1,000 miles with children,
you need this site!
The web host has done a great
job compiling travel
games by age. Babies can
definitely travel by car.
They are too young to say,
“He’s touching me!” If
your kids are older and
less tolerant many more ideas
are here too. We personally
have used the tinfoil
modeling idea. It is great!
A generic roll of tinfoil is
cheap and the kids had a
blast.
This site is a must see because
even just
traveling across town can
be a hair raising
“adventure” and I use that
term loosely. Until next time.

"Ah, the summer road trip.
It's a less expensive alternative for the family vacation. The only trouble
is, most kids hate being trapped in the car for a long time. It's hot,
crowded and boring. You can only play travel Monopoly so many times, right?
Family road trips can be a wonderful learning and bonding experience -
if you know how to do it right. I stumbled across a fabulous site that
has all kinds of information and ideas for making a summer road trip fun.
They have game and activity ideas by age group and some traveling FREEBIES!
Check out the site and let me know what you think! Moms Minivan.com"
