As I just finished watching Game 6 of the World Series, I found it interesting that my next suggestion for keeping kinds entertained during car trips is called Doubles and Triples. You have to keep your eyes on the ball, or specifically the license plates. Look for plates that include double or triple letters or numbers, such as AAA123 or AGU111. Whenever you see a set of matching letters or numbers, you score a point for each letter. You can also look for plates that have consecutive letters or numbers, again like AAA123 or now let's try ABC930.
One things that all children have with them is their imaginations. Challenging children's imaginations teaches them to solve problems, create exciting solutions, and ultimately entertain themselves.
Time flies. Time flies when you're having fun, so put your children's minds to work and decide what would happen if time really could fly. Give each child a chance to decide what they would like to go in slow motion, fast forward, and pause. To when would they go backwards in time, and to when would they go forwards?
My favourite things. Each passenger, or child, gets to take turns naming his favourite person, food, thing to do, clothes, toy, and so on. Explain why that is your favourite. This should get everyone excited enough, and may even last the entire length of your trip!
I'm special because. Build everyone's self-confidence and awareness of their special qualities by giving each person a chance to say something that is special about themselves and special about someone else.
Making up jokes and punchlines is always fun, and kids think mostly everything is funny.
Best friends. Each person gets to tell who he would like to have as a best friend and why.
As if that wasn't enough to whet your appetite for family travel, you might want to consider booking that rental car and hotel over at www.kingarthur.myttn.com today! And the kids can help!
