Car ride fun

We are in the car A LOT.

• My parents live 50 minutes away.

• David's mom, sisters and Kazia live 60 minutes away.

• Aunt Anne-Marie lives 45 minutes away.

• Aunt Staci lives 35 minutes away, as do Uncle Todd and Aunt Heather

• Aunt Heather lives only 20 minutes from us.

• Aunt Lynn, Uncle Alex and kids live about 26 hours away

• Aunt Becky, Uncle Jon and kids live about 15 hours away

• Uncle Mark, Aunt Anna and kids live about 9 hours away

• Great Grandma, uncles and cousins live about 12 hours away

Lately we've gotten pretty desperate in finding new ways to entertain the kids while on the way to visit family. Lame as it seems, we made up a new game that keeps the kids happy for quite a while during car trips to visit family.

You are welcome to try it out yourselves.

I still have to think of a name for the game, but it's all about identifying parts of yourself quickly, and is mostly fun for 2 year olds, but 12 year olds also enjoy it, even though they pretend to be annoyed.

Everyone show your armpits, NOW!

Everyone show your mouths, NOW!

The game also includes showing eyes, elbows, tummies, knees and more, NOW.

I hope your kids enjoy it as much as mine!
