Lets take a road trip!!  But first, we should stock up on some of these fun road trip printables for kids – don’t you agree?  

Not sure about yours, but my boys tend to get ultra bored and a bit grumpy after sitting in a car for several hours.  

So, I made some great printables, like this dot square game printable, to help keep the kids entertained!  I hope your kids enjoy them, too!

About the Road Trip Printables for Kids:

This is a dot board to help your kids quickly (and easily) play the dots and squares game on your next road trip.  

Oh honestly, this dot box game printable is great for airports and trains, too! 

Personally, I print out a stack of these and my other printable road trip games and stick them in a storage clipboard!

Is this printable dot game board something that the whole family can do? 

Absolutely. This is great for rainy days at home, or a long car ride for the kids in the back of the car to play a fun game. I’ve included the simple dot game template so that you can start playing the dots game right away. 

The great thing about great games like this is that it’s a great activity for everyone. This is one of the reasons that I love offering free printables – because this gives you the chance to play your own game on your own time! What a great way to bond as a family or to have this free printable dots game on hand for a vacation road trip! 

How to Play Dots & Squares Game:

Starting with an empty grid of dots (aka these printable game boards), the game is played by the players taking turns to add a single horizontal or vertical line between two unjoined adjacent dots.

A player who completes the fourth side of a 1×1 box earns one point and takes another turn.

The points are typically recorded by placing in the box an identifying mark of the player, such as an initial.

The game ends when no more lines can be placed. The winner of the game is the player with the most points.

In current times, children want to stay glued to their electronic devices. However, when they do, they miss out on everything around them and this basically defeats the entire purpose of the road trip. Doesn’t it?
