A new thing for me this year has been the interest of some brands and companies wanting to link up to write and publish reviews and guest posts, I only choose to go ahead with those I think will be of interest to myself and my readers.
I was recently approached by a blogging brand company to see if I would be interested in linking with
www.insuremyrentalcar.com and review their printable car games for children they helped this company to create. This appealed to me for two reasons, one we always travel with our children and two, all our UK visitors hire rental cars whilst they are here.
'Insure My Rental Car's mission is simple...we aim to make it easier for drivers to understand their insurance options and save them money. The new USA site, www.insuremyrentalcar.com, has been created specifically for US residents but also caters to Non-US residents traveling to the USA.' Source: www.insuremyrentalcar.com
The package arrived promptly and contained the following:
1) Print outs of the games
2) A pen
3) Coloured crayons
4) A clipboard
5) Disney singalong DVD
The clipboard is such an obvious idea I am kicking myself I had not thought to use one myself after all these years of traveling with children. My girls are 5 and 8 years old and luckily all the games provided are for multiple children to play but not all of the games would work to entertain a single child in my opinion.

The choices of car games to play were:
1) Number plate game
2) Consequence drawing game
3) Car bingo
4) Alphabet game
5) Traffic jam game
6) Car search
During our car trip the children also chose to listen to the CD of classic Disney sound tracks from films such as 102 Dalmatians, Bambi, Beauty and the Beast, Mary Poppins and so on, there were twenty songs to listen to and to be honest it made a refreshing change from the usual modern tunes which get played over and over on the radio plus there were no worries about inappropriate lyrics.
Overall this is a great pack for traveling with children, there were plenty of copies of each game so I can use this pack for another couple of trips, the Disney DVD I can leave in my car to use on any journey short or long and the crayons, pen and clipboard can be left in the car for use anytime too.
