Bring along a laptop or game boy... makes time fly a little, then watch a movie... then sleep. by the time, you'll probably already be there. if u arent, you can go to drastic measures and start talking to your siblings

When i was younger we would play the state game.. when you say a state, then someone has to think of another state's name whos first letter is that of the last states last letter. or we'd do that with any place such as stores, etc.

Depends on the family.Some scream at each other,and the kids fight.Some sing those goofy car songs,some put on the DVD in the back for the kids while the front stays silent.Some just stay quite and look out the windows.*+++++*

We like play games and argue with each other and get own our parents nerves.
by Orangepowder on November 7th, 2009
Sing, crack jokes, argue and pee a lot. The kids like to wave at truck drivers, so that the truck drivers will blow their horns. I was riding one time, and my brother put my son up to flipping off a truck driver. I was wondering why the truck driver had a shocked look on his face. My son was about 4 at the time.

Complain about how long it's taking to "get there".

Play the license plate game, looking for custom license plates and try and figure out what they mean.
by Tom on August 6th, 2009
Try to find a licence plate from each state on passing cars, or getting points for being the first to spot a Volkswagen Beetle.

by IntotheForge on August 6th, 2009
I had creative parents, so I couldn't speak for families at large. My mum would give my brother and I double doses of Nyquil before we went on long rides. Kept us out for about 10-12 hours, no muss, no fuss. Other than that, most families I know invest in portable entertainment.
by racheleastman on August 6th, 2009
play the ABC game.... you have to find all the letters in the alphabet before anyone else does... or
you can play it like you have to use the first letter of the word begins with the letter you are looking for...
by Jack wears love COAT on July 20th, 2009
Crack jokes, crunch munch all day, sing, argue, and sometimes, doze off :)

"Are we there yet?"
by MyBailey on August 11th, 2009
I recently drove the entire length of Michigan with my cousin and her 4 year old granddaughter. We made frequent stops. We made it a road trip, not just to get from here to there. We looked for places along the way to stop and explore. It breaks up the trip - and frankly I can't do more than a few hours driving without a quick stop.
by Eclipse sleeping by moonlight on August 14th, 2009
We had 2 big games.
See how many states you can count the license plates from.
The other game was "I see something" followed by a color. Everyone else had to guess the "thing" that was that color. Whoever guessed got to do the next question. And it had to be something along the trip, something you "see".

by PrincessErin1986 on November 7th, 2009
Well my family enjoys plugging in the ipod to the car and listening to music and singing. Ha ha...stopping at truck stops looking at the crap they sell, and stalking up on coffee and mountain dew, and redbulls.
by Symbeline on November 7th, 2009
Make insults using the letters of other cars' license plates. BSA=ball sucking asshole. Beats massaging your ass when it gets sore anyways.

Screaming and yelling. It always make the time pass with such ease.

For long road trips, do you prefer to drive at night? What impact does the closing of rest stops have on your trip?
