Growing up, my family didn’t take many road trips. My grandparents all lived within 20 minutes of our house and my cousins within 2 hours. Every so often, we would travel to Branson, MO, which was about 4.5 hours away and our furthest road trip until I was 13. Or at least the longest I remember.
When I was thirteen, my grandparents took my oldest brother and I across the country to California for two weeks. It was amazing to see sites such as the Grand Canyon as we traveled. There were long stretches of road that pushed my brother and me to the brink of boredom. If it wasn’t for good old-fashioned road trip games, we might have fallen prey.
Now that I have my own children and a visit to our family takes up to 12-hours, I see the importance of having some non-screen time activities. My older kids love to play the Alphabet Game when we get close to a larger city. It becomes a fun race to the finish line with lots of shouting and laughing as we race each other to the “hard” letters.
Now that they are learning the different parts of speech, my younger ones enjoy doing Mad Libs as we drive. The giggles and roaring laughter as the story is told after filling in the blanks, is a sound I never tire of hearing. And it is a great way to review parts of speech, which I count as a win for homeschooling! Whatever you choose to play, just make sure it brings laughter and fun to your trip – it will help pass the time!
