Road trip activities for children:
- Road trip activity packs printable: create your word searches, road trip bingo, crosswords, and a travel journal that makes a great road trip activity; make it a colourful staple; have it bound; put it in a binder and make it reusable with plastic.
- Magnetic road trip games: keep kids busy with game pieces that stay in place with magnets. The pack offers a variety of options, making it a multiple-use purchase and offering several road-trip games kids will love.
- A portable DVD player and a good Disney movie or Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episode do the trick.
- Audiobooks: be sure to download a few of your kids’ favourites before the trip and test them so they are ready to go in the car, and remember to charge your electronics.
- Colour-in books and coloured pencils: a great way to keep toddlers and even young elementary school children entertained on a road trip. Be sure to bring coloured pencils or washable markers.
