The city name game always

Someone starts with the name of a town city country continent

Ie Chicago

Rotate to the next person who has to think of a town city country continent starting with the last letter - in this case O

If you can't think of a name you're out

Last person standing wins

Good for killing an hour on the road

Never played, sounds fun but hard with a four year old 😁

The alphabet game.

Reading in the car.

Singalongs.

Favorite breakfast spots.

These are great!

I spent a lot of time in a car with family going to visit my grandparents for the summer.

Keeping my youngest kid from vomiting.

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

God bless that trip and your family

Two barfs today!

Oh no! I hope your youngest feels better

He gets carsick, so he always feels better after he pukes. We’ve gotten very good at containing the situation.

Ah got it. From motion sickness

Orange car, green car, yellow car.

Simple rules,

- First to spot all three wins

- Players can block other players from getting a point by spotting the car first

- When someone wins, points are reset

Now my wife and I play it even when the kids arent in the car 🀣🀣🀣

This is right up our alley!

Haha, good luck!

I got a combo, all three in under 5 seconds the other day. Proud Dad in the front, kids crying because they lost in the back. Doesnt get better than that!

#dadstr shows no mercy!

Trying to minimize the screaming in the back

Or

That time when I looked back and told my kid: β€œsleep!” And he closed his eyes and napped πŸ˜‚

how did you make number two work cause that seems like dark magic

He kept ramping up. Super hyper. An hour or two after his nap time. It was getting annoyed so I turned around and told him β€œsleep!”. He looked at me right in the eyes, and then his eyes started closing. My wife and I looked at each other, incredulously.

You Yoda-ed your own son

We had Road Trip Bingo cards growing up, but they were from like the 50s. They were pretty cool. Maybe there are updated versions now.

bugslug/whoever c's a(VW) beetle first gets 2 slug/ OG eatthebugs?

How does this one work?

They had see through green slides that you would push over when you saw like, a farm, a fire engine, woodpile, etc. I seem to recall there being some super tough ones like obscure animals or such things. Then when you got 5 in a row you would win.

The license plate game
