4.0 out of 5 stars Worth the money, August 16, 2005

This review is from: Kids Travel: A Backseat Survival Kit (Spiral-bound)

My family went on a 12 hour car trip, and I purchased 2 of these-one for an 8 year old and one for a 5 year old. It was great for the 8 year old-he loved everything about it. It was a little over the 5 year olds head, but he had fun "pretending" to do everything. So, all in all, I am so glad I got the book-it made the trip fun--we all loved looking for new license plates!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect book for a kid who travels, a lot or a little., July 13, 1999

I got this book when I was about 9 years old, and I still use it now, at the age of 14. I record all flight times in it because I bring it everywhere I go. The License Plate Game is my favorite. It keeps you on the look out throughout your entire trip, so you are never bored. And unlike many other books, they actually give you EVERYTHING you are going to need for the activities in the book. From drawing to sign language, this book has it all!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for long car rides, June 6, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Kids Travel: A Backseat Survival Kit (Spiral-bound)

My 8-year-old daughter used this book on a recent 12-hour car trip. She became obsessed with finding license plates and marking them off in the book. When we returned home she brought the book to school for "share time" to show her class how many license plates she spotted (over 30). The activity pad also kept her very occupied.
