Summer Travel Tips for Parents

We are about halfway through summer, but that doesn’t mean your opportunity for a family vacation is lost. In fact, with these helpful tips, you can plan a successful and budget-friendly trip.?

First, try to secure your plans as early as possible. If you want to take a trip right before school starts, lock down your location and dates and reserve the necessary arrangements. The sooner you book, the less risk of higher costs.?

Next, create a summer travel budget. When you’re just traveling as a couple, it is easier to track your spending. This can be harder with children, so your whole family must be on the same page regarding your vacation budget.?

Additionally, don’t overpack. Whether traveling by plane, train, or car, keep your luggage to a minimum and leave room for newly purchased items.?

When road-tripping, plan for kid-friendly stops with playgrounds and outdoor spaces for your little ones to run off some energy.?

Lastly, let your kiddos be a part of the planning.?

If you’re looking for activities your kiddos can do in the hotel and while on vacation, MOTOR PLANit has a library full of fun games for your little ones to play together and grow.
