A sane vacation
Are you packing the van for your vacation but dreading the endless, “Are we there yets?” from your kids? This tip, from Best Life magazine, saved my sanity this summer:
Explain that the whole trip is the length of a child’s body — toes represent home, and their head is the destination. They’ll be able to understand your progress and may even giggle when you note that their kneecaps are covered in trees, or promise to stop at the McDonald’s at their belly button.
