Good Fun Takes to the Road
Car rides with children, whether you’re visiting family or heading out on vacation, don’t have to be filled with cries of, “Are we there yet?” and squabbles among siblings. Keeping your kids occupied with games, activities and snacks is a great way to help make any ride a lot more enjoyable.
Activities and Games
Pack age-appropriate activity bags, and fill them with crayons, books, toys, activity sets, stickers and handheld games. And be sure to include a tray suspended from the front seat, or another substitute table surface, for these backseat activities.
For more interactive type games, try these traveling favourites as you peel away the kilometres towards your destination:
I Spy
Pick out an object that is visible to all. Then utter the classic phrase, "I spy something that is..." (complete the sentence by describing the object’s shape, colour or size). The other players may ask questions but you may only answer with "Yes" or "No". The first player who guesses right becomes the new spy.

A-Z
Find words beginning with "A", on signs as you drive. Players alternate turns progressing through the alphabet. Don’t forget to switch-up which child starts a new game, so that everyone gets a chance with the easy and hard letters. |

Twenty Questions
One player thinks of a famous person, place or thing. Everyone else gets to ask the player 20 questions, which must be answered, "Yes" or "No." The player who guesses correctly thinks up the next item.
Geography
Start with a place – Ontario, for example. The next person has to think of a place that begins with the last letter of "Ontario," such as "Ottawa." The person who goes next needs to name a place that starts with an A, and so on. You may not use the same place twice in a game, and it has to be a real place.
Licence Plate Spotting
See how many different provinces you can identify on licence plates as you pass them on the road.
I’m Hungry
Of course, don’t forget to pack the snacks and drinks, especially Dare RealFruit Minis. Discover the many ways that all our delicious Dare Products make everyone feel good, on your next trip.
