Re: Friendship bags
The friendship bags are such a good idea -- we moms in my church's MOPS group are always looking for simple teaching ideas for our kids. The friendship bag can teach so much about being prepared, and about sharing what you have with others, etc.!

Re: Category game
Our family has invented a game that is a lot of fun to play in the car, and even works with a wide range of ages. It is very simple and we call it the Category Game. The person who starts names a category (eg. a children's book, a food that begins with 'G', the name of a person at church ... anything!) and everyone jumps to be the first to name something in that category. The person who is first then gets to think up the next category. It is fast moving, fun, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
