After 13,000 miles, 38 states and nearly 5 months of travel, we have one wish: To find families who do the same thing as we are doing. There is a great shortage of kids in motor homes that travel with their families on around-the-country trips. The "Class A" motor home parks sometimes cater to kids (at least somewhat) but even the local chapters of FMCA do not have kids. If anyone knows of a local chapter specifically for families with kids, we'd like to know.

Even if you search the blogs for the word "children" you come up empty. It has been the greatest way to teach geography, history and even American Literature by traveling and visiting state and national parks, and homes like that of Jefferson Davis, in the south, to Lincoln, and many more.

We do home school, and this has been the greatest year. Some of our "graduates" will be visiting us over the holidays and joining us as we travel from Selma to Birmingham; walking part of the route.

Join us here on this blog for more Kids on the Road.

We too travel with our kids. Two boys age 14 & 10. Keep us posted as to your travels and expierances. My boys favorite trip so far was to Carlesbad Caverns, Sea World in San Antonio, Corpus Christi, and Dallas, then back to Denver.Even on the long drives between destinations, they were never bored.Do you allow your kids to play handheld games while traveling (PSP, DS, Gameboy, etc)? We have a rule that they can play them in areas we have already been, but in new areas, they have to look out the window and/or play some type of "road" game.

Not sure about the US, but here in Europe and especially in summer time kids are all over caravan parks; we travel with our two kids and they enjoy. I tend to find sites with swimming pools, walking paths, forest, etc. as this is also part of the adventure. We may try US / Canada next year. I would always say: kids are welcome!!
