Travel Games for Kids

This is by far one of my favorite sites for travel ideas for my toddler. She is a fantastic traveler but she is still a toddler and she has her moments. As do we all. It's really unfair to expect her to keep herself entertained and happy for a simple 2-hour Sunday drive or a two-day, cross-country excursion. So, if you are in need of some creative ways to keep your little one stimulated and happy on your next trip: check this out. You can thank me later.

Dear Abby: Is it uncouth to give a Hurricane away as a White Elephant Gift?

Awwww, how sweet. Mother Nature's giving me a welcome back to Texas present.  It's called Tropical Storm Don.  Unfortunately, I think I've had one already but I lost the gift receipt. Do you think I can return it? Or maybe re-gift it to Colorado.   Colorado won't know right?! It's totally cool. I'll just wrap it up with lots of good rainbows. She'll never know the difference.
