Kids are playful this days just like my son who is so hyperactive. I think the best way to make sure you can concentrate on your driving without worrying about your son is to divert their attention. If you can't make your kid sleep, then just let them watch movies. Make sure you have their favorite movies with you.

I would have wanted them to enjoy the scenery but for now, with their young minds and brimming energy, I'd prefer them sitting down, eyes glued at the monitor in the car, watching their favorite cartoons while I hit on the gas pedals.

If you are making a 3-hour drive, you cn make them watch a one and a half hour movie, and then teach them how you play that little game you mentioned. Or, you can also follow what I sometimes do -- let them sleep. :) I think a nice balance between DVD watching and sight-seeing is a better alternative than just pure DVD watching.
