Road Trip Planner Printable

-

I made this road trip planning printable almost a year ago and just found it recently (haha!).  Although we mainly rely on our phones for road trip planning, I thought it would be good to also have a paper-and-pencil planning option.  My parents still get a lot of use out of the Camping Notebook that I made, so I was hoping that others would equally benefit from a printable Road Trip Planner, too.


The PDF includes two sizes of pages, full and half size.  Each page can be printed as many times as you'd like and placed in a binder or half binder.  You could keep all your road trips in one notebook as sort of a scrapbook of your family vacations.  Let me know if there are other pages you'd like to see included in the printable.


Included Pages


Vacation Calendar- days of the week without dates, which can be used to map out where you plan on being or going each day

Menu- plan out your food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on a few different styles of pages

Snack List- what's a road trip without snacks?

Hotel Information- a place to jot down locations and confirmation numbers or to keep track of your opinions of each place if you plan on heading that direction again

Activities and Toys- plan your kids' toy to match a theme (dinosaurs for a Jurassic trip or minions for a Despicable Me trip) or just list everything so you remember what to pack or buy (suggestions here)

Media List- movies, music, and audiobooks that your family will enjoy or that match your trip's theme (be sure to include at least one lullaby CD)

In the Cooler- drinks, sandwich fixings, refrigerated snacks, meds, etc

In the Car- a place to list all the bags and boxes that must be taken to the car

Budget- keep track of expenses or plan out the money spending

Packing List- blank pages for writing out your stuff and a suggestion list

24 Fire-Free Camping Meals

This blog article was originally posted on my first blog  In Our Pond .  I started out trying to put all my travel content on my homeschooling blog, but it grew to be too big.  So, I'm moving all the road trip stuff over here!  It'll probably take me a while to move all the posts, but I'll also be posting new content on here as well.  In Our Pond will now be exclusively for homeschooling and parenting content, while this blog (Party Through the USA) is for all the family travel posts.  Check them both out! I grew up camping, and love the smell of campfires and the way food tastes when it's been cooked over one.  Due to all the forest fires in the western part of the US and Canada, we haven't been able to have campfires for most of the summer.  Not being able to sit around the fire in the mornings and evenings is a bummer, but the real challenge comes in planning meals, especially for a large group.  When I was helping my mom plan our next camping trip, I deci

Now that it's the New Year, I've started thinking about SUMMER!  In fact, I've already started planning our next themed road trip (which I'll be revealing soon).  About this time of year, I start up my Travel Time Tuesday posts, and today is the first one! In this digital age, it's easy to hand your child a device and pacify them with movies and games the entire trip.  But, as we all know, you miss so much when you're living life throug

Travel Dice Games for Kids

-

Dice is great for camping and other types of travel, because they're tiny, heavy, and washable.  They don't take up very much room in your luggage and can often be stored in an altoid tin.  Most dice have some weight to them, so you don't have to worry about them blowing away if you're playing outside.  Lastly, plastic dice are washable, in case they end up in the mud or get grimy from being played by lots of people.  As we approach primary travel season, I've rounded up some awesome dice games from around the web. Dice is good for math practice, too.  As a homeschool family, we're always looking for ways to add fun into our school time.  Many of the games in this post promote number recognition, addition, probability, multiplication, and other math concepts.  I've also simplified many of the games to make them easier for kids to understand and win.
