Traveling can be hard on your body, so allow time for your children — and you — to stretch. Children in car seats for extended periods of time can get antsy and are prone to a pins-and- needles sensation in their legs. “Allow them to run around at a rest stop or wander the motorhome every couple of hours to avoid restless meltdowns,” says Carrico. By keeping your children on their regular activity and sleep schedule, you’ll avoid the possibility of them becoming grouchy or sleep-deprived. Don’t forget to bring along a favorite pillow, blankie or stuffed animals for easy snoozing.
