BOREDOM BUSTERS ON A ROAD TRIP!!


Planning for a road trip with your children this weekend?? That means stocking up on food, drinks and preparing to keep your kids stay put for long hours on the road. Although these road trips are super fun, they can sometimes get quite arduous. It is imperative to keep the children entertained, to avoid them from getting boisterous.

I have a checklist that I refer to every time we plan a road trip, that way every members need is taken care of. However "Entertainment" checklist needs extra special attention. Nope, can't cut loose on that section. I stock up on some ( okay, maybe lots) fun and engaging ideas to ensure its a peaceful journey all the way!

On one of our trips last weekend, I had taken these really cool pouches from "Boredom Busters". "Boredom Busters" offers a variety of activity pouches to keep your kids curious and entertained.These sets are for toddlers and preschoolers ranging from 1.5 yrs to 6 yrs, and focus on teaching  different concepts at a time.  They were a big hit among the young ones in the group, we were amazed to see how engrossed the kids would get in those games. One trip where we had less complains, less tantrums and less disturbance. Not only road trips, you can make them play these at home, parks, restaurants, or play dates, airport waiting lounges or on the planes too. These sets surely bust the boredom out of the children and keep them busy for a good amount of time. These busy bags are challenging brain teasers. Once the kid is finished playing with one set, He/she can put that back into the pouch and open a new bag. Since we had about 6-7 preschoolers travelling with us, I made sure all of them had something relevant to their age.
