According to family travel expert Emily Kaufman, “The Travel Mom,” families are starting to think past the backyard “staycation”and are rediscovering the freedom of the open road. Kaufman shares the following tips for a fun and safe family road trip:
~ Create a boredom bag. Convert a hanging travel cosmetic case into a case full of fun and hang it from the seat back in front of the kids’ seats. Consider creating fun works of art with Twizzlers Pull ‘n’ Peel Candy before snacking on them!
~Take your trip “online.” From GPS systems to phone applications, trips are no longer a navigation nightmare.
~Think through the snacks you pack. Avoid packing snacks that are easy to spill like juice boxes or snacks that melt. Try plastic bottles with sports tops and bring along TwizzlersCandy or Twizzlers Nibs Candy – they are easy to share and don’t melt, making them the perfect car ride treat.
When my kids are older we would love to do more traveling. For now we stick to more local / same state places for vacation. One of my favorite desinations to travel is New York City.My husband and I have always enjoyed our vacations there prior to children. There is so much to do and see. From museums, to the everyday hustle and bustle! My husband and I definitely have this trip on our to do list soon! For now we do a stay in Florida with little travel to theme parks, like Sea World!
