Entertaining children
Last summer my daughter and her family took a trip from western Montana to eastern Minnesota. A long trip with two 9 year-old girls and a teenager. To everyone have a good time, Grandma (that’s me!) put together an assortment of “Goody Bags”. Each bag had surprise that might help move the miles a little faster. The “rest stop” bag had a blow-up beach ball so the girls could run off some energy. Another bag had a “medicine wheel” craft kit, one had a game for the swimming pool, and another had a book of puzzles and, of course, some of the bags had special snacks. This is something I would do for my children and now I am happy to do for my grandchildren. Give it a try and see if it doesn’t help the miles go faster for your children.
