When going on long drives or just drives in general, talking to your family is just n-no. Even listening to your parents is just not enough, and when you try to join in on the conversation your parents will call it ‘’adult stuff’’ and you should just look out the window. WHICH IS WORSE!!! So here are some activities to play in the car and if any of these activities you think are cool, go ahead and try them.
The first activity you can do is try to share some riddles. Riddles are very interesting questions that either trick your brain or make you think outside the box. *This game is good for when a parent and child share riddles they bond more helping the child to be confident in front of their parent since they can just blurt out answers whether they are right or completely wrong*. Playing riddles can also help adults with their brains and imagination. Experts have said that puzzles like riddles can connect the brain cells in adults minds. If you don’t remember any riddles then make good use of your or parent mobile to look up into the internet.
Another thing I like to do is play a series of short games with the same purpose – to increase our imagination. One of these games is called opposites attract. In this game, one person will say a word and the rest of the players must name their opposites until they run out of words. Another game is New Shapes. Here you think of a shape and find real-life objects that have that shape.
One final activity I have is called Personality. This is a multiplayer game where one person thinks of somebody all participants know. The rest then ask yes or no questions until they know who the person is. The person can be dead or alive, male or female, old or young. It just has to be someone all participants know. It is a great way to connect or introduce children to their extended family or friend circle.
These are the games or activities are fun for when too bored to look out the window. It stops your siblings from complaining and arguing about who should take the last chip. Not to mention keeping the family improving their minds instead of injuring them. So, stop the looking out the window, scabbling between siblings and “adult stuff” try out these games!!!
