    here's a start

    1. Each person (kids over 4 included) gets their own toiletry bag. Don’t make mom responsible for everyone.

    2. Pack enough summer clothes for 3 days plus a pair of long pants and nice shirt. 3. While at the pool, do the laundry

    4. Toiletries - pack a tooth brush, tooth paste, comb or hair brush, soap etc for each person. Blow dryers etc... maybe.

    5. Pajamas: No girlie or tacky sleepwear - bring something that can substitute for a pair of shorts or a shirt just in case of a clothing disaster.

    6. Bring 2-pairs of shoes: walking shoes and sandals

    7. Bring a Windbreaker of some sort.

    8. Sweatshirts or Polar fleece jackets – If you are going to buy souvenirs, buy a sweatshirt or jacket. It’s a useful souvenir and the memory will last until it’s worn out or out grown.

    9. Pack the swimsuits and towels separately. You’ll probably want to use them as soon as you get to the destination. Not to mention, they’re probably still wet from the day before. On road trips, our towels always drape over the luggage in the back of the minivan so that they can dry. (Thank goodness no one can see them through the tinted windows)

    10. Kids Toys- Give each child a small duffle bag (not much bigger than a loaf of bread). Don’t forget paper and a writing surface and something to write with (leave the crayons at home. They melt into upholstery and carpet). Keep the car clean and safe. Tell your children “If you’re playing with a toy, it can be out of the bag. If your not, it goes back in the bag”. If you have bench seats in your car, be sure to place the duffle bags between the kids. The further the distance between the kids, the quieter the trip.

  7. Start making a list of what you use daily and then pack it (try not to wait til the night before).  Besides the usual clothes, toothbrush, toothpaste, shaver/razor/shaving cream, you might include kitchen utensils, plate, cup, etc.  You can bring more things since you have a car/truck.  Be sure to bring a good road atlas and to make sure all the fluids in your vehicle are fine. Better yet, change your oil and air filter if necessary.  The gold brick for the gas is funny, but also true.  Maybe not that funny.  If your car can use regular gas, don't waste $ on premium. Write down your itinerary and give it to a reliable family member.  Better yet, call em nightly to let em know where you are staying.
