Plan Stops Around Kids' Schedules

Plan Stops Around Kids’ Schedules

A route planned around nap times and meals runs smoother than one that ignores them. Building stops into the schedule ahead of time avoids a lot of avoidable meltdowns.

  • Time longer stretches of driving around expected nap windows.
  • Look up playgrounds or rest stops with space to burn off energy.
  • Build in more stops than you think you’ll need for a first family trip.
