We asked parents how they manage when traveling with kids and how to not go completely insane. What made it easier on them? Moms came through big time with some awesome tips that they’ve actually used themselves, including letting the kids pack their own backpacks with travel activities in the bags. Take that even a step further and let them roll their own luggage if they are preschool age or above.

If you’re traveling this summer by car, train or plane, these tips will help you have a pleasant trip. If you have your own amazing parent-tested tips to keep your child happy on long trips, let us know by typing them in the comments section below. And don’t forget to pack the kids’ sunglasses and sunscreen. Sharing is caring!

Keep these tips in mind when traveling with kids in all seasons.
