Looking for new things to keep the kids occupied and aware when traveling? Forget the license plate game and focus them on looking for Signs that have pets on them. It may seem like a hard thing to do but you’ll be surprised at how many there are. From motels to restaurants like Lucky Dog Cafe or Dog & Suds, to Grooming Shops, Veterinarians, dog washes, pet stores or movie theaters. There are dozens of opportunities to find a sign with a dog, cat, horse or bird on them. We’ve even seen OPEN or CLOSE signs in the shape of a BONE. It’s especially effective when it’s getting close to time to eat, it gives kids something to focus on and raises their awareness for things in the environment rather than a computer or game screen.
