Road-tripping across the country, you have to face several long stretches across the most boring highways you can imagine. Determined not to let the big obstacle (AKA the drive across the Arkansas plains) bring us down, I created a game for us to burn up a few hours.
We created a long list of music prompts, and before the trip, we had to find a song that matched each. During the drive, we took turns queuing up the songs we selected. Not only was this entertaining, but it was cool to see which categories we chose the same song and which selections led to unearthing old memories.
Here is the list of music prompts we created we created:
