How To Keep Kids Busy On A Road Trip!
We have all been there…. whether on the road or at the campsite, a child will look at you, shoulders down, pout on their face and declare the inevitable I’m bored!

Free Fire Starter
When I was a kid my brother set up a roadside stand selling firewood. He would chop the wood and tie the bundles with his friend and they would sell it together and split the money.
