School is finally out for summer, and for many the long six-week break will be filled with lots and lots of travelling. No matter how you’re reaching your destination, you’re going to need something to beat the “I’m bored!” and “Are we there yet?” whines from the kids. To ensure sanity is kept by all, while boredom is kept at bay, you need to make sure that little hands are kept busy. That’s why we’ve rounded up our pick of the best activity books for summer to help children pass the miles.
