Road Trip Games

Ive grown up in the midwest and spent my whole life driving/riding passenger for every vacation, i’ve only been on a plane once about 10 years ago. To keep rides interesting, weve played every kind of game imaginable. While i prefer to just talk or enjoy the company of my passengers, i usually reach a point where I run out of things to talk about and want something else to distract me. So here are 2 games you probably know that I’ve played and enjoy!

  1. ABC’s: The OG game, all you do is find a word starting with A, then B, and so on, as you compete against your friends. We play with one “skip” where you can skip one letter if you get stuck too long

  2. Cows + Horses: My dad taught us this one. you split the car into two halves, the passenger and driver side. Keep your eyes on your side of the car, and if you see a cow your side gets +1 point, while horses are +10. If you pass a cemetery, the side the cemetery is on loses all their points. This game is fun because it can last the entirety of a trip

What games do yall play on the road?
