Great Ways to Pass the Time in Your Diesel Pusher

Loading the family in your diesel pusher and hitting the road? As you already know, a diesel pusher is a great way to see the country but taking children on these trips can sometimes make children restless and impatient. To attend to this, here is a list of ideas that are sure to make children entertained and happy as you push your diesel pusher along.

The license plate game – this state to state classic is an excellent way to get everybody’s head on a swivel. Game players attempt to spot a license plate from every state. When playing this game it is often fun to bring a map of the U.S. so game players can color in or cross off the states they see license plates from. Travelers may also find it fun to count other diesel pushers they pass on the road.

Card games – card games are always good for hours of fun as you and your family maneuver from state to state. Whether your family’s preference is Old Maid, Go Fish, War or another classic card game, everybody can join in the fun. These games are often sold as specific decks designed for each game but traditional playing cards can often be used for many of these games. Card games are particularly handy for car rides because they do not require a board or small pieces so there is not as much of a worry that game parts will be lost.

Alphabet Games – There are many different kinds of approaches to the alphabet game. Some people enjoy simply keeping their eyes open to identify letters of the alphabet on billboards, road signs, license plates and business signs. Going through the alphabet one letter at a time, players are sure to have fun finding every letter of the alphabet as they are seen from the diesel pusher window. Another way to play the alphabet game is to select a category and take turns naming something from the category that starts with the every letter of the alphabet. For example if food was the category that was picked the first player may say Apple and the next player may say Broccoli and so on and so on until the end.

I Spy – who hasn’t shouted the phrase “I spy with my little eye…” at some point in their life? This fun guessing game is sure to get everybody involved and guessing. One player thinks of something and the other players attempt to determine what was picked by asking yes or no questions. “Is it round?” “Is it red?” “Is it alive?” Eventually enough clues are found and the answer is guessed; “Is it the moon?”

Moo Cow – This game can be fun and even a little educational. Game players keep their eyes open to spot and count cows on the side of the road. The more you see the higher you count. Without question, in some parts of America you will be counting pretty high!

Another great way to pass the time is to simply read. Books can be read by the individual or to a group so everyone can participate. Also many children love classic games like crossword puzzles, word searches and Sudoku. Fun games and good books lead to fun times and entertained passengers regardless of their ages.

There are countless ways for you and your family to pass the time while driving your diesel pusher from A to B then to C and D and on an on but no matter how you choose to do it the important thing is that you are together as a family.
