CAR TIME
As busy families, we spend a great deal of time together in the car. Talk about a captive audience. Make the most of this time and have fun together.
A Blessing for TravelIt's summer! It’s vacation time! The day is finally here. The suitcases are packed. Your car has a full tank of gas or maybe you have boarding passes tucked away in your pocket. You've made your best guess for how many goldfish crackers you'll need during the trip. Most importantly, you have your child's favorite stuffed animal handy for nap time in the car, on the train, or in the airplane. Before you leave on vacation, take a moment to say a prayer for traveling mercies.

Car GamesFor longer car drives, car games are a great distraction but also a time for family fun. There are many free printable game boards online. When playing BINGO, you can have family members compete against each other OR have one family board that everyone works to fill.

Praying in Your Car
The average American spends 101 minutes a day driving. If you, like I do, live in an urban area, you may find yourself frequently frustrated or impatient while driving. Why not reclaim these hours and use this time to connect with God, your family if they are in the car with you, and your community?
