RVing with Kids 12 Months a Year
Review by Jaimie Hall Bruzenak
RVing with Kids 12 Months a Year: The How-to Book of Family RVing by Joan van Dolder is a must-have resource for families who like to travel in their RVs. Geared towards families who go camping on weekends and vacations, this has tips on all aspects of RV camping. Also, if you’re a full-time RVer (or not) who will be traveling with grandkids, I recommend it.
Van Dolder starts with "Why?" Camping is an experience that bonds families and gives all members memories they’ll never forget. It gives them time to be together without distractions.
Next she goes into "How?" From making your reservation, to packing the RV and surviving the road trip, she gives all sorts of advice a tips. A often overlooked aspect of camping is RV etiquette, which she covers nicely.
The next section is "With Whom?" She discusses how to you make this a good trip if you have young children, babies, teens or grandparents along.
The fifth section is "Is it safe?" Common sense will get you safely through most experiences, but Van Dolder covers things like hiking, wild animals and Mother Nature’s threats.
Included also are resources, packing lists, menus and grocery lists, plus an index. 144 pages.
As a mother of four, author Joan van Dolder knows firsthand what it is like to travel with children. The family RVs 12 months of the year, enjoying the beauty of the seasons together.
