11 Screen-Free Ways to Entertain Kids on a Road Trip

With the USA Rest Stops app, you can plan ahead to stop at rest stops equipped with picnic areas, clean bathrooms, and whatever other amenities you prefer along your route. Pack a rest stop recess bag stocked with a frisbee, jump rope, bubbles, or whatever outdoor toys your kids are into, set a 15-minute timer, and get some wiggles out. Some rest stops will even have some info about whatever county or state you're in so you can create a mini educational moment.
