Family vacations are a great way for your kids to form happy memories but, if you're going to road trip to your destination, it brings up some complications; nobody likes sitting in a car for hours at a time, especially kids. So how do you keep them as happy as possible? Well, one experienced mom has some advice for us all.
Below, the mom in the video gives us several tips on how to prepare for a road trip properly; her kids even chime in from time to time with their opinions! Check it out, or read our written list, and learn along with us here at Fred Beans Ford of West Chester:
- Healthy snacks are a must; forego sugary junk food and bring some veggies and fruit instead
- Same with drinks: water is much better than sugary soda or juice
- Hand out food and drinks in bowls and cups to prevent arguments about proportions
- Make sure they're in comfy clothes and have soft blankets
- If they get bored, books or art supplies are excellent activities
- Give everyone their own pair of headphones so everyone can listen to their own music
- Don't forget to have some music or podcasts of your own!
