Connect as a Family
Turn off the phones, DVD players, radios, and spend time talking with eachother. Try playing games without computers, use the outdoors and the ages and likes of your family to help you plan which traveling games to play. With a little thought, everyone can join in on the excitement.
Taking the Roads Less Traveled
Camping vactions can add more fun to the excursion because you are able to see America in a completely different way. Once you’ve identified your trip, attempt to take roads aside from the major highways. What’s the rush anyway?

Put some effort into identifying points of interest that your family will want to be sure and visit along the way.
