Map out rest areas for smoother road trips

Trey maps out rest area stops for his family's road trips before they leave home. Makes traveling cheaper (picnics instead of restaurants) and nicer (kids get to run around).

Your comments

Another good thing to map out on your path is libraries with good children's rooms - they might be a little bit away from the highway, but if you need a place for kids to be kids for a while it's a good bet.

My family always travels with maps to local science museums. We are members of our hometown museum, and most places honor the membership.

The kids get a place to stretch their legs and brains, clean toilets, and often a cafe to augment the travel PBJs.

We close comments after a month to guard against spam. Want to talk about this hack? Join us on Twitter and Facebook!
