Backseat Entertainment

Hand- in-hand with holiday season, come long trips via planes, trains, and automobiles. We know that stresses of commuting don't stop at packing warmly, and no one wants to inadvertently pull a Home Alone (1, 2, or 3)! Discovery Bay Games has got you covered for the fun side of travelling—entertainment.

It's a great idea to have a road trip distraction plan just so you're sure everyone's hands and minds are busy playing and not pestering. Here are a few ideas straight from the Discovery Bay team!

The Kids Table

While you’re picking out table cloths and place-mats and dusting off your best china for Thanksgiving, have you thought about how to make “the kids table”more than just that?

We suggest turning it into a “keep-them-busy-while-you’re-cooking-and/or-watching-football-and-entertaining, table”. How about some great activities and games that will keep all the kids from going nuts with boredom?

For example, the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey line of products offers a bunch of exciting activities for kids of all ages.

Super Bowl Halftime Entertainment

While some of your friends are dusting off their Cheeseheads, your other friends are putting their Steelers Terrible Towels in the wash in preparation for their 2011 Super Bowl debut. If you’ve started thinking about food, appetizers, and television positioning in your home, you might also want to start thinking about halftime entertainment! We have some stay-away-from-the-cold-weather activities that will not only keep the thrill going, but also create a fun competitive nature for everyone, even those who aren’t so into football.
