Road Trip Games

Road trips are exciting! But what happens when the drag of driving hours on end starts to catch up to you? What started as a fun trip can start to go downhill fast with cranky and restless passengers or silent zombie passengers glued to their phones. Make sure you are prepared with a few Road Trip Games!


#1: The License Plate Game.

Description: This game is played by reading off the many license plates you will come across and making up a name and short story line for each one.

Example: License plate [CR56745] Christopher Robin, age 56, 7 days a week walked 4 miles to see his 5 friends.


#2: Cows On My Side.

Description: Many times, depending on which route you take, you tend to see cows. If you see cows on your side of the road say "cows on my side" and earn a point. This is the same for passengers on the other side of the vehicle. If you pass a cemetery, say "ghost cow" and steal the points from all players.


#3: The Singing Game.

Description: Someone starts with a line from a song, followed by another person continuing with another line from a different song, and so on.

Example: "...hello, is it me you're looking for..."

"...the rest of my life..."

"...into pieces, this is my last resort..."

#5: While You Were Sleeping.

Description: Wait until the first person falls asleep. All others come up with a fake story that happened "while they were sleeping". When the sleeper wakes up, everyone must try to convince the sleeper of the story that happened.


#6: Name the Capitals.

Description: Make sure someone brings a list of states with capitals or if you really know your stuff, countries and capitals. Forgot to print a list? Have a passenger look up some on their phone. Say a state or country and have the others guess the capital.
