Here is a fun fact about me that not many people know. I actually had not ever been on a plane until my honeymoon!
When I was growing up, my family took plenty of vacations but we always took road trips and often went camping.
I remember the longest road trip we took was driving all the way to Florida. The drive down there we stopped halfway through at a hotel to get a much needed break.
The way home though was a different story. My youngest brother had to have been only a few years old at the time. He absolutely hated being in the car and screamed the entire way home.
My parents were so ready to just be home already that we drove sixteen hours straight! Aside from the occasional bathroom and food break, we just kept going.
It was definitely a difficult trip but we were all so glad when we finally got home and had a good night sleep in our own beds.
The way home I just put my headphones on and listened to a Spice Girls cassette tape (yes, I know, I’m dating myself a bit here!). But the way there was much more enjoyable.
My parents would always make sure we had a ton of fun activities to do while we were driving. That often included puzzle books which I loved!
While my kids are still very young for word games on their own, I thought it would be a great idea to create some fun free printable Summer themed word games.
They are perfect for entertaining your kids on those long road trips during Summer vacation!
