However, taking a road trip with your family during the school break could be the perfect way to spend quality time together. You can see some of America’s greatest iconic sights. And best of all, you can provide an educational experience for the kids too. Here are our top four favorite places to take your children on a road trip:
South Dakota
South Dakota is home to the great Mount Rushmore. The landscape here is stunningly beautiful, and the parks offer plenty of outdoor activities and adventure for all the family. The nearby Black Hills National Forest provides a wealth of wildlife and plant life to explore. There are a few good camping grounds nearby. As the weather is changeable, an RV could be the best option, especially with young kids. You can find a dream RV to suit your budget and lifestyle. Then head into the mountains for a vacation of a lifetime.
