Lonely Planet Kids Create Your Own Holiday Games

Lonely Planet Kids Create Your Own Holiday Games by Laura Baker is a hands-on kids activity book designed to turn travel time into play time, with bright illustrations by Yu Kito Lee. Bursting with 60+ make-and-play ideas, it’s a clever companion for road trips, flights, rainy afternoons and family holidays at home.

Inside you’ll find a mix of quick games and bigger craft-style projects: travel scavenger hunts, spotting bingo, pen-and-paper challenges, DIY board games and card games (with templates), plus outdoor and party games that get everyone involved. Step-by-step photos make it easy for kids to jump in, while the open-ended prompts encourage creativity rather than just following rules.

Perfect for families wanting screen-free entertainment, primary school kids who love making things, and grown-ups hunting for reliable travel games that don’t take much packing.

Add it to your holiday kit and see how far imagination can take you.
