Like many families around this time of year, ours is gearing up for a few road trips this Summer. I thought it would be fun to make a little travel kit for Emily — this one has a Roadside Scavenger Hunt Game! I sewed up a fun looking wallet to store everything. (Special thanks to Jennifer Casa for the inspiration!)
You know how I LOVE to share a good thing!! There are a few Kid Travel Kits available in the Etsy Shop.
Now the fun part — One lucky reader will win a Kid’s Travel Kit just like this one!! Kit includes the fun wallet (sewn by me), 2 wipe off markers, and 4 laminated Roadside Scavenger Hunt cards (illustrated by yours truly). How FUN is that???

I hope you win. The travel kit is the cutest idea! We had many many long car rides as a kid, and I remember playing scavenger hunts but never with such a cute kit.
