What are you going to do to keep the kids busy on your
upcoming road trip? Taking a trip with the family should be a fun time spent
together, making memories to last a lifetime.
Sometimes the children (and adults!) need a little entertainment when
making a long trek down the highway. Put those digital devices away because
your trusted car dealer in Mid-MO is here to share some fun road trip activities the entire family
can enjoy.
1. The License Plate Game
As you drive down the road, everyone in the car looks for
license plates from different states. The goal is to spot vehicles from all 50
states, although Alaska and Hawaii are rare finds!
2. Tic-Tac-Toe
This classic game will keep 2 members of your road trip
entertained for a while. Two players are assigned an X or an O; the two
alternate placing their symbol, and then the player with 3 in a row wins. Make
a tournament with all passengers or play best of 5 to extend the game.
3. 20 Questions
In the popular road trip game, 20 Questions, the first player mentally chooses an answer; then all participants try to narrow down the answer by asking questions. If the carload gets to the twentieth question without figuring out the answer, the answer is revealed.
4. I Spy
Most people are familiar with I Spy. This is a fun way to
get everyone on your road trip involved. The first player starts off with, “I
spy with my little eye, something (color/shape)”. The person who spots the
correct item wins and is now the one who chooses an object.
5. Hangman
Passengers can play hangman on paper or a small white board.
The “Wheel of Fortune” based game gives players a chance to guess the letters
that make up the phrase. This is a fun way to test knowledge and pass the time.
6. The Alphabet Game
Similar to I Spy, The Alphabet Game can be played by anyone
in the car. Players look for any object outside the vehicle that has letters.
The trick to the game is to go in order through the alphabet as you pass signs,
buildings, or any object with words. Be warned, this game can be pretty dry if
there are few signs along the road you travel.
7. Spot The Car
Another fun twist to I Spy, a player starts the game by selecting
a car make and model and everyone tries to spot that type of vehicle. The first
person to spot the right car gets to pick the next type to find.
8. The Singing Game
If your group is into music, this is the game for you! When
a song comes on and everyone is singing along, randomly mute the radio. The
last person still accurately singing the lyrics is the winner.
9. I’m Going on a Picnic
Memory games are a great way to spend time on a road trip.
The first participant starts with, “I’m going on a picnic and I’m
bringing….(something that starts with an A). The next person will start the
phrase over and add an item that starts with the better B. The goal is to
continue through the entire alphabet. The player who is stumped when
remembering the full list of items to bring on a picnic loses.
Enjoy some of these games on your next road trip with the
family. Before you head out, bring your vehicle by Spieler’s Inc. to get checked over to
ensure everything is functioning properly. The best car dealer in Mid MO is here to help you make
your road trip a success. With safety and entertainment checked off your list,
you are ready to roll out on your next adventure with the family!
