How much do I love my iPhone apps? Enough to try out most every iPhone travel app that comes along!
Check out Family Car Games, created by a family of four to help your family pass the time with instructions for 100 different games. You can play the games in the car, on a long flight, or while waiting at the airport. Or waiting anywhere for that matter.
I downloaded the app ($1.99) to check it out. And hey – I like games, too! There seemed to be a nice variety, hitting on a number of different themes, from words games to story telling to singing. I recognized the names of some (so there are so classic car games here), but there were lots of titles that I didn’t recognize. They claim that no additional equipment is needed, but I’d recommend a notepad and pen as many of them involve counting or keeping track.
You can select a game by various searches (name, degree of difficulty) or at random (a shaker/spinner much like is on Urban Spoon), and you have the ability to bookmark your favorites so you can play them again and again. Each game is tagged with a degree of difficulty to help you choose age appropriate activity.
It looks like a lot of fun, and next time I’m spending time with a youngster, I’ll give it a more thorough testing out. For $1.99, though, you can’t go wrong!
Download via iTunes or directly from your iPhone or iTouch.
