5 Child-friendly Games For Long Car Journeys

When it comes to long road trips, it's best to have a strategy to keep the kids entertained and out of trouble

. Admittedly, good snacks also help a fair bit. But the games will truly save the day. Here are what MyTravel.com would consider their ten favourite games to play on long car journeys. The sort that could keep the kids entertained across many county lines and country borders. Though dont get too ambitious the parents might get bored at some point.

1.King of the Consumers

The ideal way to kick start a childs obsession with brands also happens to be a very satisfying and low maintenance game. Name the make of each vehicle as it approaches first to call it correctly gets a point. Play ad infinitum. To make this more amusing for grown-ups, add in some rash judgements about the drivers outfits based on their choice of ride.

2.Twenty Questions

The best way to fend off an incessant barrage of Are we there yet? is to enforce a structure to all the questions asked in the car. And limit the number of them. Twenty questions can help with both of these things, and be fun, too. One player decides on a famous person that they will be for the round of questions. The others ask questions with yes or no answers until they can guess who the famous person is. Whoever guesses first chooses the famous person in the next round, but if the other players ask more than twenty questions, the famous person wins and they get to start again with a new name.

3.Animal, Vegetable or Mineral

This is pretty much the same as Twenty Questions, except that the first player chooses to be something thats an animal, vegetable or mineral (rather than a famous person). Which makes the first couple of questions a lot more straightforward.

4. Fizzbuzz

Maths whizz? This ones for you. Players count upwards, each taking one number in turn, but replacing all multiples of five and numbers containing the digit five with fizz, and all multiples of seven and numbers containing the digit seven with buzz. Thirty five is both, so it gets fizzbuzz. If a player says two numbers in a row instead of just the one, play changes direction. If they say three, skip a player. Good luck.

5.Hangman

Here is another classic to round off the list. Youll need a pen and paper, and make sure you definitely know how to spell the word youve chosen for the others to guess, or everyone will get very confused, and then very angry.
