How do you avoid boredome when you are on long car trips?

Question

I have to be in the car for over five hours tonight and I get so bored!!

Answer 1

listening to the radio, car bingo, sleeping, talking on my cell phone, and different trivia games

Answer 2

I always go on long road trips. I sing the ninety nine bottles of beer on the wall song or play penny hoops or see who can count the most number of purple cars in five minutes , or take a nap or listen to music , always bring sumthing to do. Something you won't get tired of and won't give you a headache. bring a pencil and notepad, you can draw, play hangman, tic-tac-toe etc.

P.S. Never eat, then sit in the back seat while the car is on a curvy road.. blech!
P.P.S. hope this helps and have fun on ur road trip!

Try something I use to do.
If there are others riding with you play a game with license plates that have alphabet letters and creat words such as...
SDI = Stupid Dumb Idiot

Sounds crazy but it turns out to be a lot of fun and passes the boring time away.

Just look out the window. It is amazing the things you can see in a new place. Roll down your windows for fresh air and new smells too, unless you are going to drive through New Jersey (where I am from). It smells baddddd in some parts where the refine oil.

I always take a camera on road trips and take pictures of interesting things on the journey. You can also annoy the other people in the car by taking pics of them!

Answer 7

if you going to be with someone else then i suggest playing truth or dare, cracking jokes, just letting yourself be a kid anytime you have to do something boring i always say do something crazy as hell so you'll never forget it or reget it. ya feel me. if you by yourself same thing, call someone, hold your pee for along time and then try to find a rest stop (don't have any accidents) trust me there's no time to be bored when your bladders about to burst. take 5 of your favorite cds. there's alot more than you think that you can do.
HAVE FUN!!!

I always try and adjust my position every 10 mins, lift yourself about 2 inches off your chair shake your legs and sit down. Another thing you could do is to, if you are driving, stop every hour and stretch your legs, also, take a drink. You could also take a magazine, newspaper and pillow and sit on each of them seperatly changing every hour.
