Pack your NOUN, the family is going on an adventure. Mad Libs on the Road is 21 fill in the blank stories about everything that happens between here and there: inventing car songs, spotting historical sights, surviving rest stops, and ordering mystery meals at roadside diners.

It is the classic Mad Libs format from the original creators: one player calls for nouns, verbs and adjectives, fills the blanks, and reads the finished story to the car. Ten minutes of it outlasts any battery, and the misquotes will be repeated for the rest of the trip.

A glove box sized 48 page paperback for ages 8 and up. The single cheapest upgrade a family road trip can buy, and a great gift for anyone about to drive somewhere with children.
