The nicer weather is upon us, which means trips for you and your family!  We all know that the trip planning process can be overwhelming, especially with young kids to keep entertained on a road trip. But what’s important is to really plan the trip out and to make sure that the young ones are staying busy and staying comfortable!  There are some easy tips and tricks to help you out during the trip, no matter how long it is. 

Books are a great option for younger kids and older ones too!  Having each child pick two or three out before leaving will help keep them entertained.  Or, download some family friendly audio books and have the whole car listen to them.  This goes hand-in-hand with creating family friendly music playlists that everyone can sing along to!  If you have toddlers in the vehicle, bringing toys they can play with in the car will help keep them distracted for a while as well. 

We also believe that a roomier vehicle makes a happier family!  Comfort is a huge factor when you’re going on a trip, let alone knowing where to put all your belongings.  If you have a roomier crossover or SUV, you’ll be able to fit children and adults more comfortably!  Pack a shower caddy full of some helpful and easy to grab items instead of needing to stop every hour to get into the back of the car for what you’re looking for.  This is helpful for trash bags, paper towels, baby wipes, and even snacks! 

Are you ready for family adventures but your vehicle is not big enough to fit your family and their extras?  Here aThelen Chrysler in Bay City, Michigan we have inventory of the spacious and feature-filled Chrysler Pacifica which is perfect for your family outings!  Stop by today and let us show you this amazing minivan and how it will provide you with enjoyable travels for your spring and summer adventures around the Great Lakes Bay Region and beyond.
