When it comes to road trips, the journey is just as important as the destination. Spending hours on end cooped up in a car can be tiring and boring.

But fear not! There are plenty of fun things to do in the car to make the time fly by. Here are some ideas to keep you entertained:

Play Games

1. The Alphabet Game: This game involves finding words that begin with each letter of the alphabet, in order. For example, “A” for apple, “B” for banana, and so on. It can be played individually or as a group.

2. 20 Questions: One person thinks of an object and the others ask yes or no questions to guess what it is. 3. I Spy: One person chooses an object they can see and says “I spy with my little eye something that is (color of object).” The others then have to guess what it is.

Sing Along

4. Karaoke: Put together a playlist of your favorite songs and take turns singing along. 5. Name That Tune: Hum or sing a few bars of a song and see who can guess it first.

6. Musical Categories: Choose a category (e.g. songs with colors in the title) and take turns naming songs that fit.

Create Something

7. Storytelling: One person starts a story and everyone takes turns adding to it. 8.

Mad Libs: Fill in the blanks of a pre-written story with random words chosen by the group. 9. Draw Something: Bring along some paper and drawing supplies to sketch landscapes, portraits or whatever else comes to mind.

Miscellaneous

10. Snack Time: Pack some tasty treats to munch on during the drive. 11.

Podcasts: Download some interesting podcasts to listen to and discuss with your fellow passengers. 12. Take a Nap: Resting up can help you recharge and feel more alert when you arrive at your destination.
