    Road trips can be a great way for families to bond, explore new destinations and create lasting memories. However, traveling with kids can be challenging, especially if you are not prepared. Before hitting the road, it is important to ensure you have all the necessary items to keep your family safe, comfortable, and entertained during the trip. In this post, we will share some essential items for a family road trip with kids.

    1. Car Seat Covers

    Kids can be messy, and car seats can take the brunt of their spills, crumbs, and accidents. This is why car seat covers are a must-have for any family road trip. Diono, for instance, offers a range of seat covers that are designed to fit most car seats, booster seats, and strollers. These covers are made from high-quality materials that are easy to clean, ensuring your car seats remain in pristine condition throughout your trip. Additionally, seat covers offer added comfort and support for your child, making long drives more enjoyable for them.

    1. Snacks and Drinks

    Packing plenty of snacks and drinks can help keep everyone happy and satisfied. Some great options include granola bars, fruit, crackers, and water bottles. Avoid sugary drinks and snacks that can lead to a sugar rush and energy crashes.

    1. Entertainment

    Long car rides can be boring, especially for kids. Pack some entertainment options like books, coloring books, tablets, and headphones to keep them occupied during the trip. You can also play car games like “I Spy” or “20 Questions” to keep everyone engaged. Creating a playlist for everyone on the trip can also make for an enjoyable adventure.

    1. Emergency Equipment

    Accidents can happen on the road, and it’s important to be prepared. A basic first aid kit should include items like band-aids, antiseptic wipes, pain relievers, and allergy medicine. You can also include any medications that your family members may need. Also bring with you a toolbox that can help you make any basic repairs such as changing tires in case of anything. If you plan on wandering into the wilderness, a GPS tracker can help you keep track of your location. Also have the contact details of emergency response services in the area in case you need help.

    1. Blankets and Pillows

    Comfort is key during a long road trip. Pack blankets and pillows to help everyone relax and get some sleep during the drive. This is especially important for younger children who may need naps or breaks during the trip. You also can’t rule out sudden weather changes and blankets can help you stay warm when it gets cold.

    1. GPS or Navigation System

    Getting lost on a road trip can be stressful and frustrating. A GPS or navigation system can help you stay on track and avoid getting lost. Make sure to program your destination into the system before you hit the road. As an extra precaution, you can have the GPS system transmit signals to one of your loved ones so they know exactly where you are. This can be beneficial if you get to a location with poor phone coverage.

    A successful family road trip requires careful planning and preparation. By packing these six essential items, you can ensure that your family is safe, comfortable, and entertained throughout the journey. With these items in tow, you can hit the open road with confidence and create lasting memories with your loved ones.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
