Car Games for Your Next Road Trip
If you have kids!The Alphabet Game: Similar to the A-Z License Plate game above - but this time, instead of find the letters of the alphabet in license plates, find them on the signs you pass. You can only use the signs on your side of the road - and remember, you have to find them in order!
Name 20: Take turns naming things objects that you are taking with you on your trip. ie. "I'm going to New York and I'm taking an Anaconda." Each person must also be able to name all of the objects that have been previously stated. "I'm going to New York and I'm taking an Banana and an Anaconda."
On the Road Scavanger Hunt: Before you hit the road, devise a list of objects each person has to identify along the way (a water tower, a horse, a purple car - anything you want!).
Find A State: In this game you make a list of all 50 states, include any Canada Provance as well, and as you find each license plate that is from that state check it of. Two rules however, one your car does not count and two you can not check off your state until you are out of your state. Make the list a head of time so your not searching for paper in the car. The game is played until you reach home, so see how many states you can find.
.
Name that Roadkill: Our all-time favorite - You get a point if you are the first to identify an upcoming carcass, 5 points if it's the first of its kind on that trip and 10 points if you have never seen one before.
The kids and I snagged (along with usual skunks, raccoons and squirrels) a possum in West Virginia, a vulture killed while eating a deer in Pennsylvania (15 points), a coyote in Virginia, and an aardvark in Texas.
