Family Getaway: Road Trips Made Easier

Going on vacation is always the best time of the year, but traveling with children can always make it a little hectic! 

Here are a few ideas from www.parents.com to remember to bring with you when going on a road trip with kids:

• Books
• magazines
• comics
• Sketchbook
• washable markers
• colored pencils 

Other fun ideas to keep them entertained:

• Pre-stamped blank postcards (find them at the post office), which your kids can decorate, or postcards bought on the road
• Have your children write to friends, relatives, even pets
• Etch A Sketch
• Magna Doodle
• Portable DVD player and DVDs (DO NOT FORGET headphones!!!)
• Scrapbook envelope—entrust your children with the responsibility of collecting postcards,  ticket stubs, and brochures for a scrapbook
• Play the license plate game or road trip bingo

Snacks:

• Individually packaged, crumb-free snacks such as bite-sized goldfish crackers
• Hard-to-bruise fruits such as apples and berries; or try fruit roll-ups
• Trail mix, which will leave kids feeling full longer (and keep fingers greaseless)
• Reusable bottles filled with water

Other:

• First-aid Kit
• Tylenol, Sunscreen, and Dramamine
• Garbage bags to collect trash
• Extra diapers and wipes, if necessary
• Change of clothes, in case of accidental spills
• A blanket for spur-of-the-moment picnics at rest areas—and naps
• Jump ropes and balls, so energetic little travelers can tire themselves out at rest stop
