Traveling with children by car: what you need to take on the road

Travel strengthens the family and remains in the memory. But, only on condition of competent and advance preparation. Otherwise, you risk getting in the car constantly whining children and a dump of toys and garbage. Write down smart car tricks every mom needs to know to stay organized.

1. You know how sticky the cup holders are when drinks are spilled in there! Place silicone cake molds inside to keep them clean.
2. Cover the rear seats with a sheet or blanket. The front one perfectly fixes the sheet with an elastic band.
3. Transparent shoe boxes are simply irreplaceable things in the car. Store everything from toys to snacks there.

4. Do you have these transparent film organizers hanging in the bathroom? Take them with you and hang them on the back of the back seat. Ideal for storing small items.
5. Children's pencils and other crayons can be placed in containers, like suction cups. And hang them on the windows.
6. Buy silicone stickers. It will keep children busy, and it is not difficult to rip them off the windows of the car.
7. Use a regular tray instead of a table for games. You can sculpt and craft on it.
8. Write down the time on stickers and hang them under the clock in your car. When the indicated time comes, surprise the children. This focus helps break the monotony of the ride and motivates you to travel long distances.
9. Pack snacks and meals in personal boxes. In order to easily give boxes to children and not throw up the next garbage in the car.
10. Packages with juice freeze. At first they will serve as a substitute for a refrigerator.
11. Prepare a bag that you can reach at any time. Have the essentials there: change of clothes and napkins.
12. Be sure to keep your trash bag for emergencies. Suddenly, someone will feel sick.
13. Download audiobooks, print coloring templates, think out road games. For example, you can play bingo. Who will be the first to see the Stop sign (or a red car, traffic light... and so on). This will give parents a little silence, because the children will look out the window.

14. A find - markers that wash off! Let the children paint on the glass. You can easily remove the painting with a damp cloth.
15. In order not to hear the constant: “Have we arrived yet?”, Print out a map of your route. It might just be a screenshot from GoogleMaps. Passing cities, towns, streets, children will cross them out on the map.
