My daughter and I found this book in the Houston airport as we were browsing stores during a long layover. I bought it out of desperation (after all, it had markers and blank pages!), but it turned out to be a wonderful investment. It is a very kid-oriented travel journal, with questions, hints, and prompts to guide the young journalist through recording their trip(s). It gives you and your child something to do together while flying or at night in the hotel, and as an extra bonus, it's a great show-and-tell item when your child returns to school. I've saved the journal for my daughter's trunk, so that years from now she can read her own thoughts about Oregon and Arizona! We highly recommend this!! (One aside: smart six and seven year olds will do just fine with this journal if you work with them.) Product Review Trip Tracker is Rand McNally's travel gift to parents of children ages 8 and older. Enclosed within its spiral- bound covers are pages of games, songs, puzzles, and activities guaranteed to keep youngsters occupied in the backseat of a car or the passenger seat of a train or airplane. In addition, there's a packet of colored markers, stickers, and postcards, plus plenty of space to record travel memories, doodles, and lists. A word to the wise, however: if you don't want to be driven mad by all the verses of "99 Miles to Go on Our Trip," consider quietly removing the pages entitled "Songs to Drive the Grown Ups Crazy!" --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. |
