Parcs nationaux Spot It!

The animal and flower illustrations are genuinely pretty, not the cheap clip-art look I expected from a themed card game. My kids picked up the matching rules in about two minutes, and it's small enough to toss in a backpack for a picnic table.

We played this on our road trip and the kids loved spotting animals and equipment from actual parks. The cards are sturdy enough to handle being passed around the car, and it’s a great way to pass the time between stops.

The artwork on these cards is genuinely gorgeous — we've spotted bison, wildflowers, and even a canoe while playing. Rounds go fast enough that my 6-year-old stays interested, but the matching still trips up the adults.
