Sparkle Tip: Travel Playlist
Make the car ride part of your winter adventures this year. With a little preparation, you can easily transform your vehicle into a cozy spot your kids will look forward to spending time in. Here are four steps to get you started:
Fill the back seat with pillows, blankets, and favorite stuffed animals before you leave.
Bring along a supply of car-friendly snacks your kids will love. These Sugarplums are a nutritious winter delicacy that won’t leave too many crumbs behind.
