Safe games to play while you’re stuck in traffic

Category News

There are few things more mindnumbingly boring and frustrating than sitting in Cape Town traffic to and from work, and picking up and dropping off the kids at school. Here are a few safe and family-friendly games to keep you entertained along the way.


Add up the numbers on the number plates


This is a great math game to play with kids. One person picks out a car and everyone must try to add up the numbers on its number plate. The first person to get it right gets a point.


I Spy


This age-old classic is always a winner. Someone has to say “I spy with my little eye something beginning with the letter…” and the others have to guess what it is.


ABC Game


Players search number plates, types of cars and signs along the road for words that begin with each letter of the alphabet in order.


Hum a song


Take turns humming a song and let the others guess the title of the song.


Animal Game


Someone names an animal, like cat. The next person must name an animal that begins with the last letter of the previous animal ("t"), such as tiger.


20 Questions


Someone thinks of an animal, food, or person. The other players then take turns asking 20 questions to try to guess what or who it is. After 20 questions have been asked, the questioners have one last chance to guess.


Combined Storytelling


Hilarity often ensues with this super fun game. A person starts off the story with a sentence and then the other player continues the story with a sentence of their own. You can choose to begin and end the story from the beginning to the end of your journey or continue the story every time you’re in the car together.
