Are we there yet? Hey mom, are we almost there? Mom, mom, mom…….
If you are traveling with your children this year, at some point during travel, you will hear these questions. Sometimes these “questions” are more like statements because they know you aren’t going to answer. It’s almost as if children think that by asking the question just one more time that it will make the trip faster. It isn’t just the young ones either, sometimes it is the also the teens that are nagging. Nor does the mode of travel matter – plane, train, automobile, this is always the important question.
How do we deal with this?
The best solution would be if we had some kind of time warping ability where we could travel to the exact destination we are trying to reach by just thinking it. Since, I’m pretty sure that is only real in the movies like oh say, The Incredibles, then I think we are going to have to find some realistic ways to keep those kiddos entertained along the way.
Here’s a few tips for Summer Travel with Kids:
- Snacks: Pack plenty and a large variety. If you time before your trip, make a batch of your family’s favorite muffins or cookies. Fresh produce such as apples, bananas, and grapes are always easy fruits to eat on the go.
- Beverages: I like to pack several bottled waters (the smaller ones) and bring flavor packets if we want something a little different. We might also throw in a few cans of pop in there too! Bring along a few reusable water containers too if we need to split drinks. The reusable bottles are also nice for the hotel!
- Electronic devices charged and ready to use. Make sure to download any games, movies, or apps that will want to be played before you leave so you are ready to go. This is where the Disney Movies Anywhere App is a must HAVE app for all ages! (Yes, my teen and her friend enjoyed watching the movie Frozen on a road trip to Florida in the spring!)
