Travel Scavenger Hunt
Give each child a list of items to watch for while driving. Check of each item when they find it.  The list can be made up ahead of time and adjusted for the scenery. For a younger child who can’t read, you might draw a little picture of each item next to the word so they will know what to look for.

Here are a few examples of items to hunt for during a city scavenger hunt:  
 
flashing red light
bus
signs in foreign languages
dog
food store
railroad tracks
billboard with a child on it
cop
license plate with “Q”
fountain
person talking on a cell phone

You can create different lists depending on whether you are in the country or driving through the suburbs.  

It’s a good idea to have several ideas up your sleeve for particularly long journeys.  Whatever the game, remember to have fun and drive safe.
