Games Played on Car Rides

Today's writing prompt is car ride games.

What is your favorite games played during car rides?
Here are a couple games commonly played on car rides:

* I Spy - find certain colors, objects, shapes, etc.
* ABC - find each letter of the letter on signs, license plates, etc in alphabetical order.
* License Plate games - try to find all 50 states or create bingo sheets
* Zip Zip - find motorcycles and the first person to say "Zip Zip" gets the point. Most points win.
* Punch Buggie - find Voltswagon Beetles and the first person to say "Punch Buggie" gets the point. Most points win.

My father would give $.10 or $.25 to the first person to find a certain landmark. Some examples would be to find a horse on the roof, a giant statue, or an ironing board shaped bridge.

Do you have any games you remember playing a child? Have you made up any games for your children to play to keep them occupied during those long car rides?

Have fun writing!
