Check out these fun and engaging road trip games that you can play with your kids to keep them entertained during your long drive:

1. I Spy: This is a classic game that can be played anywhere. One person says “I spy with my little eye, something that is (color, shape, etc)” and the others have to guess what it is.
2. 20 Questions: One person thinks of an object, and the others have to ask yes or no questions to try to guess what it is in 20 questions or less.
3. License Plate Game: Try to spot license plates from as many states as possible and keep a tally. This can be turned into a friendly competition to see who can spot the most.
4. Car Bingo: Create bingo cards with things you might see on a road trip such as cows, red cars, or billboards. The first person to get a line or a full card wins.
5. Name That Tune: Hum or play a few notes of a song and challenge the others to guess the name of the song and artist.
6. Mad Libs: Create silly stories by asking for parts of speech from each player to fill in the blanks in a story.
7. Alphabet Game: Starting with the letter “A,” take turns finding things outside the car that start with each letter of the alphabet.
8. Road Trip Scavenger Hunt: Create a list of items to look for on the road trip such as a yellow car, a water tower, or a specific restaurant sign. The first person to spot everything on the list wins.
9. Would You Rather: Ask each other hypothetical questions such as “Would you rather be able to fly or turn invisible?” and explain why.
10. Storytelling: Take turns starting a story and have each person add to it as you go. This can lead to some hilarious and creative stories.

These are just a few examples of fun and engaging road trip games that you and your kids can enjoy during your long drive. Happy travels!
