Before you hear the words “Are we there yet?” for the millionth time, here’s a few quick, easy and fun games you can play with your kids. No technology or special game pieces needed here-just a little creativity and lots of fun. The best part, they take NO planning on your part!
1. Good News/Bad News – The bad news is the car ride is going to be super long. The good news is I have another fun game with you. This game helps everyone see the bright side of everything in a super silly way. The first person starts with “bad news” The bad news is there is a dinosaur in this car! The next person has to give the “good news” The good news is that he only eats leaves! Then the next person has to give the “bad news” and so on and on.
2. Alphabet Race – A great way to get the entire family playing and pass the time is to play Alphabet Race. Starting with the letter A and working all the way to Z, each person must find something inside or outside the car that begins with that letter. This is a great review of letter sounds for your younger passengers and because everyone has to find one item that starts with the letter, kids won’t get bored easily. My kids think it’s hilarious when their Daddy picks an item that doesn’t match the sound.
