If you’re taking you kids on a Missouri road trip in your pre-owned certified Toyota, you may need some simple games to keep them occupied. Sometimes the old, tried and true games are the best, and none of these require any special parts or tools. So, settle in for the long ride, and start having some fun!

Have you ever tried playing license plate alphabet? What you do is look for all of the letters of the alphabet, in order, on license plates. You may find letters as you drive through St Louis or Florrisant, and the players call them out as they find them. The first player to find the letter Z during the drive in your certified Toyota is the winner. You can vary this game by using numbers instead of letters. The higher the number count goes, the harder it will be to find them, so this game can take lots of time—and keep your kids busy in the meantime.

Another game you can play in your certified Toyota is counting. It’s remarkably simple, but it can keep kids occupied for hours. Ask them to count all of the blue trucks, for example, or brown cows. They keep a count, and the first one to reach 100 wins. You can change up the number or the item being counted to keep things interesting, and it will help keep your kids looking around instead of getting bored. There are always new things to see on the road after all, so you could count garbage trucks in St Louis and fence posts in rural Missouri.

Regardless of where you drive your certified Toyota in Missouri, you’re sure to have a great time on your family trip if you plan ahead to keep everyone occupied. Think about what games your kids would like to play, and what they will be able to do. Letter and number games are great ways to build reading skills, after all, so you can sneak in some education while they are having fun playing some games on the road.
