Pamela Cole Harris | 101 Ways to Create Family Fun in the Car By Don Cosenza New Haven, CT -- Whether your family is buckling up for a ten-minute excursion to the mall or over-loading the trunk for a two-week road trip across the nation, every voyage in the family auto becomes a joy ride with 101 Word Games to Play in the Car.
The vast collection of word games, which is available online at www.familytravelgames.com, includes old favorites like Twenty Questions and Eye Spy, as well original concepts developed by the author. A work in progress for nearly ten years, the games represent a compilation of hundreds of submissions from people all over the country fondly recalling their youth, much of which was spent traveling everywhere from baseball games to Disney World in the family sedan. What's unique about the collection is that, since the games are all verbal, no materials are required. That means the car's driver, usually a parent, can join the fun. "The premise of the book," explained author Don Cosenza, "was to assemble a pastime that the entire family could experience together - Moms, Dads, kids. What better way to bond than to generate fun as a family unit." At a time when videos play loudly in the back seat and electronic hand-held devices devour kids' attention, 101 Word Games to Play in the Car is fresh breath of nostalgia. "The games are simple. There's nothing flashy, nothing sophisticated," Cosenza said. "It's just good, clean, old-fashioned fun." The website highlights six new games every month so visitors can return regularly to print the latest game instructions. Or, better yet, all 101 games can be purchased at once right on the site. For a copy of the book, call 203-271-0511 or visit www.familytravelgames.com. About the Author Don Cosenza, a father of two, is an E-Business and Marketing Leader for a major corporation.
