Traveling with your family can be stressful – especially when you’re on the road with younger children. However, it can also be an amazing family experience if you are well-prepared. Here are some tips and tricks that you might find helpful when you go on your next road trip!
First and foremost, if your kids are readers, bring along three or four books that will keep them entertained. You could even load up some family friendly audio books to your phone so the whole family can listen to a good book together. This goes along with curating music playlists that everyone can sing along to – putting together three or four playlists (depending on how long your trip is) is a good number. Packing along small toys for your kids a great way to pass the time, especially if you provide new toys the child has never had a chance to play with! In the case of your older kids, packing video game systems or their tablets with games and apps loaded can provide many happy hours of travel.
We also believe that having a spacious vehicle makes for a happier trip. You want a vehicle that will fit children and adults comfortably, so take that into consideration before you head out! Lastly, there is a great tip to help you keep yourself organized – which will help keep you sane! Pack a shower caddy with necessities like baby wipes, paper towel, trash bags, and even snacks. Attach it somewhere easy to reach which means you won’t have to pull over constantly to try and find one of these items!
