Instead of grumbling while you fill up your tank, why not rev up your engines by watching Pixar's family-friendly Cars? This animated tale about a race car named Lightning McQueen who pulls off the fast lane and learns to slow down in order to get where you need to be in life offers a full tank of humor, and nostalgia. Inspired by the adorable, personality-driven cars that race around for the sake of driving (forget this carpooling stuff!), we headed off to our local Car Museum and brought our kids face-to-face with relics of the road. We brought grandparents along on this adventure, who shared memories about driving the cars that are now preserved in the exhibit. It's hard for kids to imagine life without car seats or DVD players, and the very notion of a rumble seat blew their wheels off. We stood back and watched as Grandpa and Grandson bonded, and soon found ourselves in the mood for a road trip -- if only the price of gas would continue to tumble downwards!
