Car Bingo: Perfect for Road Trips

For a long car trip out of the city – make multiple sheets of the car bingo for everyone in the car (even the driver can play, just have someone else mark off their items for them!) Make sure you make enough copies so you can play a new game on the way home! The object is to see/find as many items on the sheet before you get to your destination. When you see an item, call it out and mark it off on your sheet. The first person to spot the item and yell it out gets to mark it off their sheet (good to have a witness for this part!)
