Staying Occupied on a Charter Bus Service

When you’re on a long charter bus ride, it’s easy to become antsy and bored. Sometimes talking can only last for so long before you’re all “talked-out.” It’s important to bring along some items or know about fun games to play so your charter bus trip can go by smoothly. There are plenty of ways to stay occupied, whether you’re alone or with friends and family.

If you’re by yourself, or just need some “me time,” there are lots of fun things to do. If you have a laptop, you can surf the web, play computer games, watch movies, or get some work done. However, if you have a very large laptop, it might be a bit of a nuisance if the bus seats are small – unless of course you’re sitting next to a friend who won’t mind. Hand-held gaming systems like the Nintendo DS or Sony PSP can keep you occupied for hours. If you and a friend both have one, many games will allow you to play each other over Wi-Fi. For those who do not wish to be disturbed, bring along your iPod or books. An e-reader will certainly lighten up the load for fast readers or for those reading multiple books at once. Just remember to charge all electronic devices before heading out and bring along extra batteries.

Looking for something a little more fun and challenging? You can find very cheap crossword puzzle, word search, and Sudoku books. They may get frustrating at times, but they’ll keep your brain active and you entertained for hours. If you want games to play with others, you can find travel size board games for just about any game. You can find chess, checkers, backgammon, Scrabble, Battleship, and many more. Most are magnetic so you don’t have to worry about losing pieces. It might be a little difficult, but you can also play card games if there is a fold-down tray on the charter bus.

Besides physical games, there are classic car games that everyone will enjoy participating in during your charter bus trip. The most popular game is probably the license plate game. Each player gets one point every time he spots a license plate from a state. No player can repeat the same state or else he will lose one point. A personal favorite of mine is “What I’m Taking to the Picnic.” Not only does this game let you be creative, it will test your memory skills. The first player begins by saying, “I’m going on a picnic and I’m taking…” The player then names an item that begins with the letter A. The next player starts the same way but must repeat the first answer and then name an item that begins with the letter B. Each player must recite all previous answers and then add his own item. The stranger the item, the easier it usually is to remember it.

With some creativity, you can create your own unique games to play on your charter bus trip. Next time you’re stuck on a charter bus for several hours, take these ideas with you and you’ll never feel bored again. You may even wish the trip was longer just so you could play more of them.
