    Gina I. said:  With 80 brain teasing puzzles to solve, kids can stay engaged even during those long road trips. The Flexi Puzzle is one piece, so you don't have to worry about small objects getting lost under the seats. One of the perks of this toy is that it is noise free so you can have a little peace and quiet!

    Erin P. said:  Toddlers use the magnetic wand to bring each of the colored balls to its coordinating home on the turtle maze. We are big fans of any road trip toys in which all of the pieces are contained. No need to worry about losing any of these tiny pieces! Great for the car!

    Katie G. said:  Scramble up the cube, hand it to your kid and let them go. I bet it will take them all of the 7 hour road trip to solve it (or maybe not). At least they'll have fun trying and it will keep them busy for hours.

    Erin P. said:  Create cute little felt friends with this kit! Make sure that your kids have some sort of flat surface to work on because some of the pieces are a little small.

    Kelly R. said:  My kids like this single player brainteaser game that has over 100 different challenges where you need to fit all of the twisted playing pieces onto the game board. A great travel toy because it is compact and all of the pieces fit into the case.
