Sanity Saving Travel Hacks for Traveling with Kids
If you have taken an unprepared road trip with your kids before, you know it can be frustrating, to say the least. Depending on the age you are probably going to hear a lot of complaining or crying. The first road trip we took my son on was a 7 hour trip to the beach… I thought I was prepared, I was NOT! Nowadays…. I don’t even take him to the doctor’s office without a “Travel Bag”.
