how put travel time to good use and get more done.

Whether it is a long family road trip, or 2 hour drive to grandmas or a 45 minute drive to visit dear friends, travel time takes up a valuable amount of time.

You can get some of that time back by creatively thinking of ways to use the sit down time to its full potential, here are a few ideas to get you brain storming.

1. Car Schooling: Books on tape, educational documentaries  on  DVD, educational apps. on i-touch and clip boards full of worksheets with pencils attached.

2. Crafts: I love to knit dishcloths while my husband drives. You can also give kids small craft kits with few pieces. Cookie trays are excellent for placing on little laps to be used as workspace.Cover the backs with felt so they won’t be as cold or slip as much.

3. Get to Know Each Other Better: Before you leave think of a few insightful questions you can ask your spouse or children that will help you get to know them better.

Now its your  turn, take a few minutes today to brainstorm how your family can use its travel time more effectively.
