Traveling with kids is always tough, especially when you need to drive for several hours to get to your destination. Here are some tips that has helped us during our road trip:
1. Have your kids select a few movies to download on devices to watch during parts of your trip. It was Disney movies for Clara and anime shoes for Catalina.
2. Always calculate extra time for bathroom breaks, eating and just letting the kids run around and stretch their legs.
3. Don’t forget to pack plastic bags and paper towels for unexpected messes that may occur.
4. Pack fully charged power banks and extra charging cords. I found an external charger that uses solar power to charge for when you don’t have access to an outlet or the car’s USB ports.
5. Purchase some fun activities, games and travel journals to entertain your kids.
6. Investing in an overhead storage bag allowed us to have more room in the car. Since you’ll spend so much time in the car, every little bit of free space counts! I highly recommend the one we purchased.
