rubbernecking

Recommended for road trips with kids, Rubberneckers Jr: Fun for Backseat Travelers.  You can’t leave them plugged into the DVD player the entire time, and in this card-based game players score points when they spot something (like a police car, a tanker truck, a triangle-shaped sign, the number four). When we played this weekend, we required parental verification in order to keep the three year-old from spouting that she had just seen a skyscraper in the middle of California’s central valley.
