At the end of the day, kids can get fidgety and impatient while on a long journey. Parents are constantly looking for new ways to keep them entertained while traveling, ways that will also help them a little bit educationally.

Number Games

If you want your kids to practice their multiplication tables, you can do so through fun travel math learning games. One such game is the multiplication game where you can pick a number whose multiplication table is going to be used. Next, you've got to pick a code word. Let's say the number is 4 and the code word is 'bingo'. Now, every player starts calling out numbers consecutively starting from 1 and when you reach a multiple of 4, you've got to say 'bingo' instead of the number.

So it will be 1,2,3,bingo,5,6,7,bingo, and so on. This game is amazing for kids to remember their math and have some fun with everyone else in the car. After every few rounds, you could change the number and code word to make the game more interesting and challenging.
