Games to play such as I spy

[dopeycustard]

Does anyone have a good idea for games to play on a long haul flight, similar to I spy, or titles of songs with a colour in them, basically something that does not require pencils, paper, cards just voices!

I find planes on long haul flights very noisy so not sure any game where people have to talk would be very good.

Also it sounds a good way to annoy those sitting nearby who may want to sleep.

I assume it is for kids, so why not buy some cheap pencils and coloring books that can be thrown away at the end of the journey.

Also, most long haul flights have small TVs screens and radio/music channels to listen to in your seat.

The other option is some cheap mp3 players, and maybe put an audio book on their so a whole book can be listened to.

Actually its not just for children, adults play games
too! A long haul flight was an example, sitting in a depart lounge for hours also requires something to do and after all it is nice to talk

>audio book on their

Sorry meant "there" not "their"

Actually I just did a search for "games on long haul flights" (and other searches) and found quite a few web sites.

Like this one (this is particular to kids, but others arent)

Or how about travel versions of standard games like Travel Scrabble.

'trip the hostess' is always fun... as long as its not your in-flight food she's holding at the time...
