Not looking forward to that long car or plane ride??? We all know how boring those can be! Try out these fun activities to make the trip go a little faster.....
Great Conversation Starters - Make up cards with conversation starters. For example: What is your least favorite chore? If you had an entire day to yourself, how would you spend it? If you got in trouble, who would you turn to...your Mom or your Dad? What product would you become a spokesperson for? Take turns asking each other what they think. You can also go online and find more, but be sure to ask your parents first.
Silly Stories-Create your own story with story cards. Pick up some picture flashcards before you leave home and use these picture cards to build a story. Each person gets five cards and then makes a silly story out of them. This is an 'Ears' favorite for everyone!
Car Bingo! - Before you go, take some construction paper and make a grid on it. Fill the squares with pictures of things you might see on the road (red convertible, garbage truck, semi, bike, station wagon, blue pick up, construction sign, rest area, etc). When you are in the car, simply mark the squares as you see the items. A great idea is to laminate the paper and use dry erase makers. This way, you can play again and again!
Another version could be for restaurants while at Disney. Items could be: cloth napkins, blue stroller, man holding little boy, lady holding toy, someone pouring water, etc. This is fun to play while waiting for your food. Let me know how this works for you!
*Kid Experts* "I live in Charleston, SC and I am in the fifth grade. I like the color blue and love all things hippos. I like to watch the Disney Channel and love the Disney fairies. I have been to Walt Disney World® Resort fifteen times and I have listed my faves below. I hope this helps you in planning your next trip to Disney!"
