Ages 4+

Winner of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Best Toy Award, Travel Bingo is fun for everyone. Each bingo card has one free space and 24 images of objects you may see on a drive, such as a traffic signal, bird on a wire, fence, and flag. Each individual is given one bingo card pad and one pencil. As you see the different items, cross them off on your card. The first with five in a row (or whatever pattern you choose), yells BINGO. If the bingos are coming too fast at only five in a row, go for a complete blackout (all boxes must be marked). Fun without prizes, but you could also bring small seasonal treats to hand out. The box slides into the cover so the cover can't fall off, and the box can easily fit into most glove compartments.
