Road Trip Bingo

Planning to take a road trip with kids or be in the car for an extended period of time? Schedule a break from screens with this fun game that encourages kids to look out the car window and discover the world around them. Families love our free, printable road trip bingo (aka scavenger hunt)! Be sure to print one for each child – and a second copy for the drive home. Better yet, have the bingo cards laminated and use dry-erase markers so you can use the game over and over again.

We’d love to see photos of your family using our Road Trip Bingo game. If you post on IG, be sure to tag us @sandiegofamilymagazine and use #ShareSanDiegoFamily.
