Perfect for my two boys to keep them busy on our four hour journey to Devon.
Brilliant ideas. And all the hard work is done for us (pretty much) thanks TT!
Great ideas! We play a lot of number plate scrabble (our ‘children’ are 24, 19 and 12). Another one we like is 2 truths, 1 lie (so each player tells 3 statements about themselves and others have to guess which one is the lie) – which is a good way to show how much Dad never listens when Mum knows all the answers and he knows none 😉 Also – ‘would you rather?’ is good for car journeys. There are also quite a few games that you can buy which are small enough to take on a car journey – ‘Outburst’ is a fave of ours (lists of things in categories such as ‘things people take on holiday’ or ‘pizza toppings’ – one player is quiz master and the others have to guess which items are on the list). Happy journeying folks! 🙂
Fantastic ideas thanks for the help shame cant use most of them as both kids get travel sick but some really good ideas here!
Love the objects with rice or sand in a bottle, but tape the lid on securely to avoid disasters!!!!!
If your children (or anyone else) suffers from travel sickness try this foolproof remedy….have them sit on a few folded newspapers and make sure they know to only look forward whilst moving. We put the pile of newspapers into an empty cushion cover to keep them all together – about one inch thick is fine. I promise you will be amaised!
Great advice thanks Mo!
