I have been on only one road trip with a child, and it was my nephew. We drove 4 hours to NYC and he actually spent a good chunk of it asleep. When he wasn’t sleeping, I had plenty of games up my sleeve to keep him occupied. License plate games and find-a-car-color games really help pass the time.

So many great tips. I always found successful road trips with my three kids took lots of preparation, but it was totally worth it. We accumulated some wonderful memories during our road trip vacation. Snacks and entertainment were at the top of my list. I miss these days.

These are fantastic tips, Tami 🙂 I can’t wait for the summer this year as we having two trips planned instead of our usual one. We’re quite lucky as well as our two tend to sleep the whole journey, and only wake up if someone mentions stopping off for a McDonalds breakfast!!

I always smile when I read road trip tips from American friends instead of UK ones. We consider long road trips to be about 4 hours or more – and then I have US friends who travel that far EVERY day for things! Brilliant trip tips though – especially the budget one, it’s so easy to get out of control!

What great tips! I remember the years when the kids were little and we would take road trips. They could be stressful at times .. but as long as we had games, snacks, and a good book to read .. all was well! I especially love your tip about making a budget and sticking to it. It’s so easy to want to buy every shiny thing that you see!

Road trips are so much fun, but they are a hassle with kids. I think it’s key to make sure they have lots of snacks and toys to play with to keep them entertained.

These are such great tips! I think that breaking up the trip and visiting locations or doing something budget friendly on that “stop” is so important. You totally do not want the kiddos fighting, bickering or getting bored. Kids have such short attention spans already!

Having a budget when traveling with kids is a must. Often they want to get more chips, snacks, and lovely things sold outside. Sticking to a planned budget will help save more money.
