Travel & Car Games for Kids

Fifteen games a grown-up reads out loud, for a child strapped into a seat with nothing to do.

No screen, no pieces to drop, nothing that needs reading by the child. A grown-up reads each game aloud — spotting, colours, counting, animal noises, silly questions — and there is a host answer key so nobody has to invent answers at eighty miles an hour. One version is written for a two to five year old in a car seat who cannot read yet; the other is built for a flight, with activities that survive a tray table.
