I took little lined books from the dollar store and turned them into travel journals for the kids. The first pages are filled with route pictures that are divided up into mileage segments, which will hopefully be helpful for them to visualize “are we there yet?”. They can color in a segment for each 50 miles we drive – I saw something similar to this online but they had the trip divided into hour-long segments, and I don’t know how long with stops each day’s drive will take us, so mileage seemed easier to handle.
I also pasted in a few maps that I made earlier, and the car color bingo.
