National Odometer Day, on May 12th, is a special day to celebrate the odometer in cars. An odometer is the tiny machine in cars that tells you how far you've traveled. It's like a car's own way of keeping track of all its adventures! Imagine counting steps when you walk but for a car. People might celebrate by looking at their car's odometer and seeing how many miles or kilometers they have driven. It's a fun way to think about all the places you and your car have been.
How to celebrate National Odometer Day?
Grab a map and plan a fun car trip with your family! Before you start, write down the starting numbers on the car's odometer. As you drive, look out for cool places, like parks or ice cream shops, to stop and explore. Play games like "I Spy" or "Car Bingo" to make the ride exciting. When the trip ends, check the odometer again to see how far you traveled. Share stories about the journey and maybe enjoy a yummy treat. You could even make a scrapbook with pictures and notes about your adventure to remember the special day!
