10 Free Kid’s Apps Perfect For Summer Road Trips

10 Free Kid's Apps Perfect For Summer Road Trips 

Summer break started a few weeks ago here in Georgia and the kids and I have already enjoyed a handful of adventures. While we all love spending time together at home, in the yard or at local parks and such… we truly love traveling and discovering fun new places. I take road trips quite frequently with my three children and I have to admit, it’s not as miserable as some may assume! I have got this traveling with kids thing down to a science and we rarely have mishaps or upset children. The key to a successful road trip is to always be prepared and to find ways to keep your antsy child(ren) entertained. My one year old will literally fall asleep about 10-20 minutes into a drive. My 10 year old enjoys being my copilot and taking in all the scenery. My 5 year old on the other hand needs something to occupy him during a long car ride. He is my child that will sit and play apps the entire ride and it makes the trip go by so much faster for him!
