Print this game next time you travel with kids!

Will you travel with kids any time soon? If so, print this little game and take it with you on your next plane trip. It will be fun. I promise.

I don’t know about you but for us, when we travel with kids things can get intense. There is always someone wanting something and having a different opinion or running in the wrong direction. Its like going to the supermarket with my 3 energetic kids. That’s why, when we travel with kids we use similar tricks as when shopping with kids.

What about tablets, smart phones or other tech devices? In my experience those are great but are only part of the entertainment we take along when we travel with kids. Think about it. You cannot use tablets when rushing through the airport or while the plane is taking off or landing. That’s why when we travel with kids we always have some non-tech entertainment with us.

For our latest travel with kids we prepared a new game: an airport treasure hunt.

It follows the classical treasure hunt format where they have to follow the path and they can advance by finding the different objects.

I printed one version of the game for each of the kids and gave it to them when we arrived at the airport. In fact, using the same drawing, you can play the game in several ways:

• The beginners level: Have your kids spot the objects without any obligation to follow the path. As soon as they have found all the objects, the game is over.
• The intermediate level: They again have to spot the objects on the path, but this time they are obliged to follow the order, like in a treasure hunt. If the first object is a piece of luggage, then that’s what they have to find first. Even if they spot a taxi as shown further down the road, it doesn’t count if they haven’t found all the objects which come before the taxi on the path.

You can have your kids compete, but when I travel with kids I personally prefer to have them play together and win as a team.

You can of course design your own path full of objects, but you can also subscribe to the CreatifulKids mailing list and download this game for free.

Once subscribed, you’ll receive the download link in your email and you’ll be the first to know when free printables and new posts are available.
