If you want to go on a car trip with your entire family, you have to be prepared for things to not go as planned. This is especially the case when there are youngsters on the trip.

Scrapbooking

Offer glue stick, scissors and paper to the children. When you stop for whatever reason, let the kids pick out some postcards.
