Kids who get bored while traveling often start bickering or complaining, making every minute feel like an hour. Parents are often tempted to give in to the easy fix, allowing more screen time than usual. If you’d prefer to limit screen time and keep kids entertained and engaged with family, we’ve got some great ideas. Rather than have the kids “tune out” with electronics, have them “turn on” their brains with math games!
These games will teach the kids to think mathematically and to work together cooperatively. You don’t need any special equipment, but you might find paper and pencil useful for some activities. You can play Guess my Number, The Counting Game, Bing, and Storytelling with a Math Twist anywhere. The other three games work best when traveling by car, bus, or train.
