Keeping the Kids Occupied in the Car


So as we set out on this journey their will several 11+ hour driving days. As I share with people about our trip one of the first questions that they ask is "how old are your kids?" I know what their thinking. "All those long drives, they are going to be driving each other and you crazy." But I have a plan here it is.


I am going to encourage the kids to do the following on every long trip that we have:
Read (1hr)
Play games (1hr)
Watch a movie (2hrs)
Take a nap (1hr)
Do some crafts/projects (1hr)
Do a devotional/quiet time (20min)
Play video games (1.5hrs)
Listen to music (1hr)
Plan our upcoming activities (30min)
Watch Tv shows (1hr)
The Quiet Game (40 min of wishful thinking)
Total: 11 hours

Anyone else have any suggestions of activities our kids can do while we travel? Please share below in the comments. Thanks!

At the right are pictures of some of the activities we picked up at Five Below and BJ's this week.
