RV Living with Kids: How to Keep Them Entertained

RVing with kids can be an incredibly fun and rewarding experience for the whole family. But, it can also be challenging to keep children entertained and engaged while on the road.

Here are 10 tips and tricks to help keep your kids entertained and happy during your RV adventures:

  • Plan Ahead

One of the best ways to ensure a successful RV trip with kids is to plan ahead. Research family-friendly activities and destinations along your route and make sure you have everything you need before hitting the road. This includes packing plenty of snacks, games, and activities to keep the kids entertained.

  • Bring Outdoor Toys

When traveling in an RV, there's plenty of room to bring along outdoor toys like frisbees, balls, and bikes. These toys can provide hours of fun for kids and help them burn off energy at rest stops and campgrounds.

  • Create a Scavenger Hunt

Scavenger hunts are a fun and interactive way to keep kids entertained during long drives. Create a list of items for them to find along the way, like a certain type of bird or a specific type of tree.

  • Pack Plenty of Books

Books are a great way to keep kids entertained on the road. Consider bringing along a variety of books, from picture books for younger children to chapter books for older kids.

  • Play Classic Car Games

Classic car games like "I Spy" and the license plate game can provide hours of entertainment on long drives. These games are easy to play and require no equipment, making them perfect for RV trips.

  • Bring Along Board Games

Board games are a great way to keep the whole family entertained on rainy days or quiet evenings in the RV. Consider bringing along a variety of games that are age-appropriate for all members of the family.

  • Take Advantage of Technology

While it's important to limit screen time, technology can be a lifesaver on long RV trips. Consider downloading educational games or movies for the kids to watch during long drives or quiet evenings in the RV.

  • Create a Travel Journal

Encourage kids to document their RV adventures by creating a travel journal. They can write about their experiences, draw pictures, and even collect souvenirs along the way.

  • Bring Along Art Supplies

Art supplies like markers, paper, and stickers can provide hours of entertainment for kids on the road. Consider bringing along a variety of supplies for kids to use during quiet moments in the RV.

  • Incorporate Learning into Your RV Adventures

RV trips provide an opportunity to incorporate learning into your family adventures. Consider visiting historical sites or museums along your route, or using nature walks as an opportunity to teach your kids about local plants and wildlife.
