What games did you make up as a kid?

Here's one of mine:

Jenga Fortress

Split Jenga pieces equally and sit in a large circle (on the floor or at a big table). Everyone has one piece that is marked. Then everyone builds a fortress to protect their marked piece (the marked piece must be stood up on its small side).

Everyone gets a projectile. We liked using those thick rubber bands that came on broccoli at the grocery store, but you could use Nerf guns, balled up paper, whatever--as long as it's not too light and not too heavy.

Once everyone is ready, take turns firing at each other's fortresses, trying to knock down their marked pieces. Nobody can touch their fortress at this point.

Last marked piece standing is the winner.

While driving, I'll find a spot on the windshield and try to make it weave in and out of the center dotted lines by waving my head back and forth.

Makes me think of George Clooney's scene in The Men Who Stare at Goats where he practices his powers by making the clouds scatter.

All the other cars swerving around you for their lives as you stare at your window dot

This is when I was little, I rarely do it while I'm driving now... E should clarify as a passenger.
