Are you planning a road trip with children?
Here are a few things to keep the kids entertained and hopefully avoid the dreaded, “Are we there yet” questions .
Try these awesome ways to get the kids involved.
I’m of my mom friends said, she made a travel binder for her then 6 yr old last summer. They drove to Florida. She had maps printed with their route highlighted every day. He loved being able to follow along. And then she printed out free road trip games from online. Put them in sheet protectors so we used dry erase markers on them.

We always make sure to stock up on some of our favorite snacks. Don’t forget to take plenty of water. This is some that we find travel travel well: string cheese, rice cakes, pretzels, bagels, sandwiches, carrots, apple slices, bananas, crackers with cheese or nut butter, granola bars, cookies, raisins, dry cereal, jerky, and pop corn snacks.
Remember to relax and enjoy the journey. Barf happens! So be prepared. Gallon zip lock veggies and disinfecting wipes are strongly suggested.
Maintain your chill and be flexable!
If you are on the fence about taking a vacation let me say, GO! They are your vacation days. Take them. Spend time with your family. Unplug and go. There are only so many summers when your kids will be little. They are growing up and you need to make memories.
So go make memories. Good or bad they will be the things you will talk about for years and years to come.
I can’t wait to hear about your road trips!
Thanks Pamela
