On the road again...

Are you planning some road trips this summer?  You can add some road-side riddles to your collection of car games to pry those eyes away from the devices for a while.  I like to use riddle-sticks in the car at random times to add a little giggle diversion.  Popsicle sticks work fine.  Write a riddle on one side of the stick and its answer on the back and let your kids (or grand kids)  pick a riddle out of the bag to share.  Remember,  it's always more fun to give clues before giving out the answer!  If you have a copy of "Hooked on Riddles," pack it with your car essentials and you'll have plenty  to share!  

These riddles will help you rev up your engines.  
Then let the youngsters come up with their own.  Those will be the best ones!

"Pack up the car, we're going on a road trip" riddles!

1. What goes from one town to another but doesn’t move an inch?
2. Why couldn’t the peanut butter cross the road?
3. Where does a witch park when she lands?
4. What kind of pig blocks traffic?
5. What do you call an insect’s car?
6. Why did the traffic signal turn red?
7. What do you call a song you sing in a car?
