The newest addition to our collection of printable car games is Traffic Sign Bingo. The great thing about this game is that it works on both short and long trips.
Our version contains 5 different boards so that multiple people can play at the same time. Also, the boards can be rotated periodically to change things up a bit, especially when it seems that one board is more of a winner than the others.
Each sheet shows 25 road signs that are commonly found in towns and on highways.

It’s fun to capture multiple aspects of family history in your photographs. This was the first day of kindergarten for my son, with a backdrop of another piece of our history … my grandfather’s car. The 1950s Plymouth has now passed on to the third generation and someday it may well belong to my son. For some reason, it just seemed right to capture this as we were out the door on our way to school.
Connecting the present with the past in your photography can take lots of forms and is not hard to do. Think about the people, places and things that have special meaning to your family. Plus it gives you a chance to talk about the past in a way that lets your kids connect with it more personally.
Do you have a picture that connects the present with your family history? If so, please add it to our gallery and it may be featured in an upcoming post.
