Thanks to the marvels of GPS technology, you have something to offer your kids that your parents could never give you—a precise answer to that age old question,palm please “How much longer ‘til we get there?” If the answer fails to satisfy, try distracting them with the following games.
Group Story: Get the creativity flowing with a group story. Someone starts a story and the next person adds their own twist until you’ve told a collective tale.
Grocery List: This classic game begins with the phrase, “I went to the store and bought [make up an item].” The next person repeats the phrase with the initial item and adds an item of his own (and so on) until you’ve stretched your list (and your memory) as far as it will go.
I Spy: Look out the window and see who can spot something that begins with the letter “A,” then continue through the rest of the alphabet.
Botticelli: Someone thinks of a famous person and everyone else takes turns asking 20 “yes” or “no” questions to see if they can solve the mystery.
