Buckle Up For Some Road Trip Tips 🚗
Hey, Reader!
Do you have a big road trip or two planned this summer?
Every time I plan a long car ride, I remember one of the first road trips we tackled with our daughter.
We were off to Panama City, and I thought I knew what to expect. But boy, was I wrong!
After an hour, she was having none of it.
Tantrums (and books!) were thrown! Screams were screamed! And after a while, we turned up the radio to full blast to drown out her protests.
Fortunately, I’ve learned a thing or two since then!
And my latest blog post shares some tried and true road trip tips and tricks featuring Story Coins! I know you’ll find this helpful, so I hope you’ll check it out! How to Survive Your Next Road Trips with Kids
Happy travels, Reader!
