If you're at point A and you need to get you and your family to point B, Diesel Pushers are a great way to make the trip in luxury. But as anyone who has ever met a child knows, children get bored! After a while computer screens and movies lose their appeal so here are a few good old fashion road games to help you and the kids pass the time when you're on the road.
License plate games - this is a game people have been playing for years and as more and more people take to the road it becomes easier and easier to play. Game players keep an open eye out for license plates from other states keeping track of all the states they see represented. A fun way to keep track of this is by bringing a map of the U.S. along and coloring in the states as you see new plates. This is a great way to keep the kids focused on their surroundings.
Card games - Everybody loves to play card games no matter where they are so why not grab some for the road? Whether your fancy is Old Maid, Go Fish, War or another classic, hours of fun can be had while playing these games. You can buy decks specifically designed for each game or you can just bring along a deck of classic playing cards. Card games are particularly handy because you hold your cards and do not have to worry about balancing a board game. Also you do not have to worry about game pieces getting lost.
Alphabet Games - Alphabet games are surprisingly fun and can potentially be educational. Players scan the road and the surrounding areas looking for needed letters in license plates, road signs, billboards, business signs, anywhere! The first to see all 26 letters of the alphabet wins. Another fun alphabet game is spotting objects that start with a certain letter. Many use categories such as foods or cars to move through the alphabet. Finally there is the classic alphabet game where turns are taken. A category is selected and players take turns naming something within the category going through the alphabet. If the topic was food, one player may start with Avocado and the following player may add Broccoli and so on.
I Spy - We all know the phrase "I spy with my little eye." This is a fun way to get everyone involved as players take turns asking questions and ultimately guessing what the player has spied with their little eye. "Is it alive?" "Does is move?" "Can you eat it?" "It's a Cloud!"
Moo Cow - Count the cows! This is fun and can also be educational as child practice their numbers. And as you drive your diesel pusher through certain areas of the U.S. your cow numbers with get pretty high!
Another great way to pass the time is to simply read. Books can be read by the individual or to a group so everyone can participate. Also many children love classic games like crossword puzzles, word searches and Sudoku. Fun games and good books lead to fun times and entertained passengers regardless of their ages.
There are countless ways for you and your family to pass the time while driving your diesel pusher from A to B then to C and D and on an on but no matter how you choose to do it the important thing is that you are together as a family.
