You will need;
Pencil/Pen
Paper
1. Draw a scribble onto paper. Get your partner to make a drawing out of that scribble, it could be an animal, a mode of transport, an object. Take turns of being the scribbler and then the drawer. Alternatively the parent makes the scribbles, and the kids spend hours doing the drawings (hours is perhaps wishful thinking!)

I played this game as a child. Then played it many, many times with my children when they were young as well. I created a “scribble book” every time we went on a long car trip across the country. When the kids got bored with one thing we’d move on to another and many times over they would return to the thrill of trying to create a picture from one of the scribbles in mom’s scribble book.
Seeing this article brought back some fond memories for me. Thank you!
A scribble book with ready to go scribbles for car journeys is a great idea
