The Best Boys' Toys For Traveling

When I was youngster, I absolutely dreaded the long rides to my grandmother's house. Not because I didn't love granny, but because it took a whopping hour to get there. In my mind, that was FOREVER!

Unfortunately, on those excursions, I could either sleep, read, or whine, and I usually chose the latter. However, now, kids have more options when they're traveling, especially boys.

Which is why the following short-list are the best toys for 10-year old boys that are subjected to those arduous summertime travels and in-between hours on the way to a mostly-relaxing vacation.

Each of the following are compact enough to fit in your child's lap, while entertaining enough to amuse and distract him for hours (if need be). They're creative and enhancing to his mind, offering him the opportunity to solve and learn with his own imagination. This process allows you to drive in peace while he's rapt in concentration, determination, and fun.

Snap Circuits Jr. SC-100

Packed with 100 projects on one board, this junior set includes over 30 snaps that kids can use to create sounds, mechanisms, and a bunch of really cool stuff.

For example, some of the circuits mentioned in the instruction manual will connect to make a two-speed fan or a switch-operated light, while others will create a burglar alarm and alarm clock -- only in miniature form. It will thrill and delight those little scientists!

Plus, the manual is illustrated with numbers for each of the snap-togethers, so kids as young as 5 could grasp the many project concepts (just in case your son has younger siblings or friends).

Snap Circuits SC-300

An advanced model of the aforementioned junior set, this kit features 300 projects of over 60 snap-togethers. It's essential for little travelers because there's no mess to clean up and no tools are required.

Everything your child needs is on the color-coded board with an instructional manual for each project. Additionally, those intuitive pint-size ponderers can make their own mechanisms by simply playing with the circuits and discovering what every combination does.

Spirograph Deluxe Design Set

This set is perfect for on-the-road ventures because it comes inside a convenient, small storage case, which also doubles as a little lap desk.

There are over 45 pieces for drawing fun! Included are 19 geared wheels, 3 colorful pens, 2 rings, spiro-putty and several sheets of designing paper. There's also a guide book that details how to make specific patterns, and of course, kids are encouraged to create their own.

There's no mess to clean, as each utensil has a cubby or notched placed inside the carrying case.
