Travel Binders...

As my previous post says... WE ARE GOING TO DISNEY!! AH! I seriously can not wait!!! One thing I can wait for though is the drive... Southern Alberta Canada to Anaheim, California USA it will be a total drive of nearly 45 hours... yes! That is right.... 45 hours of driving with four kids six and under and two adults! So I have been planning activities, travel games... gathering Disney and Lego movies for the trip to get geared up and more.... 
So I made some travel binders as part of my way to keep the kids occupied! 
The cover has their face on a car I just photo-shopped. They are super cute!
The boys' are fairly similar... there's looks like this...
 zipper pencil case for markers and white erase double markers
 I made a map of Canada and the USA and marked out our route as well as the states we will be traveling through

 I photo-shopped their faces on a little body and put it in a protective sleeve so they can use the white erase markers and wipe off
 I found these little road and track maps online. They have the new mini Thomas trains and some mini Disney Cars they can run on the maps.
 Rylan is in Preschool, his teacher uses the amazing program Handwriting Without Tears program and they use big lines, short lines, little curves and big curves to make every letter of the alphabet. I used templates to make tracks for the boys to run the trains down each track to create the letters. A little fun with a little learning
 Nothing line creating faces and lego characters with white erase markers
 Found some amazing templates online and on pinterest!





 Some games, a sticker page and battleship!

the last page is Rylan's name traced out for him to practice his name
 I found some adorable wipe away practice books from the dollar store. I gave the boys each two for their binders

 And don't forget some coloring pages!
My daughter's binder is a bit different... Here is hers
(many pages are the same... I didn't photograph those ones, just what is different than above)
I forgot to add each kid got some wipe clean books from the dollar store and a coloring book/activity book in the front of their binders
 I found these adorable templates I know she would love to fill out
 She loves word search and frozen right now. 
 I also made her a vacation journal using some templates I found online

 And some activity books at the back
I really hope the kids love them! I also packed some blank note books in their goodie bags they will get each day to write in and have fun. I also plan to put a "lost" mitten in the front to use to wipe off the pages! 

Credit for a lot of the templates go to many great resources I found on pinterest!
