Road trips. You either love them or hate them.

And when it comes to road-tripping with kids, we’re talking about a whole different ball game. #somuchwhining

I always thought I hated road trips. Ever since I was young, I really didn’t enjoy being in the car for long periods of time. Recently though, I drove to Savannah (a 4-hour drive) by myself and I have to say, it was amazing! Having all the control over the radio, the route, and when to stop was awesome. And getting 4 hours of alone time is every mom’s dream, right?

Anyway, back to road-trips with kids. If you’re looking for tips, I’ve got another blog post that’s been really popular on Pinterest – partly because of the tackle-box snack kits I mention in my post. These travel snack boxes are so fun for kids. I mean, who doesn’t like having a ton of options when it comes to snack time?

Here’s how to make your kids their own snack box for road trips.

DIY Travel Snack Box for Kids

1. Gather your supplies.

You really just need a couple of things to make a snack box. Hobby Lobby had these jewelry storage containers for $2 – you can’t beat that!

You’ll also need some letter stickers and some other fun themed stickers.

2. Slap on the stickers.

We did a Mickey theme because, duh, we love Disney!

3. Fill up the box with healthy (or not so healthy) treats!

I like to do a mix of sweet and salty, and I always add at least a few pieces of candy. You’ve gotta have some candy on a road trip!

I promise your kids will love having their own personalized snack box!
