It’s the summer holidays and you might be wondering what you can do to keep your children occupied.  One thing you could try is visiting the NASCAR site.  Just think how much they can learn about motorsports before they go back to school! The science of racing will completely grip their attention.  There is so much to learn about speed, aerodynamics and how to reduce drag, they might even be able to teach the professionals a few things…

My boys love cars and playing racing games so the NASCAR Acceleration Nation website is perfect for them. Not only does it have the simple but entertaining game Race Flex it can also be educational with Flash Cars #1 and #2 to help children with their maths.

In addition to the games the site is full of interesting facts so children can learn more about motorsports, there are profiles of the drivers and further information on the cars, tracks and upcoming races. I can’t believe one driver started racing aged just 5 doing motocross no wonder he is now a NASCAR star! The key to success is starting early. It’s worth remembering that kids aged 12 and under are FREE to all NASCAR XFINITY & Camping World Truck races, so if the website and app have made them eager to watch a race its good to know it won’t cost you a fortune.

At this late stage in the summer holidays I am glad of any distraction! My energy reserves are running low and I need something suitable to amuse them. So, it’s well worth downloading the app which is available on Android and iPhone after visiting their informative website, who knows where their new interest in motorsports might take them. Head to Acceleration Nation App to download the free app.
