Day #113: Give Travel Packs to Kids

We met a really neat family with three kids here at our campground. They are traveling full-time - enjoying being together and exploring the country.

This morning they left for another campground in PA. Before they hit the road, we said our goodbyes and gave each of their three boys a special package of snacks and toys to entertain them on the road.

Our girls had fun picking out the items and putting them in bags. We gave them small things: fruit snacks, granola bars, a removable sticker book, a card game, a note pad, and bookmarks.

Sometimes, we give our girls things they don't normally have (special snacks, fun stickers, etc.) when we travel. It helps make the trip a little less tedious.

What items would you include in a travel pack for kids?

Our family spent 2011 traveling the USA in an RV, striving to intentionally "give every day" for the glory of God. We interviewed CEOs of nonprofits and served alongside over 40 organizations and churches.

Our Pledge

We hereby pledge:

- To spend intimate, quantity time with our family.
- To actively help the poor, the sick, the lonely, and the helpless.
- To value, protect, and advocate for children.
- To de-emphasize the importance of “stuff” in our lives.
- To bring publicity to good causes and good people.
- To live with intentionality, as if this year was our very last.
- To observe the needs in our country/community – and then do something about them.
- To give – every day.
