Today I think of my son and his wife who pack four kids into a van and travel over a thousand miles in one direction or the other to visit grandparents. My daughter in law is very creative in providing lots of activities and usually they rent a van that has video capability (something we never had when we were growing up or when we had kids). The kids often arrive with all sorts of drawings and craft projects for Grandma and Grandpa and of course movie reviews.
My husband and his brother always used to joke about renting a camper for the kids and towing it behind the car while we adults sat in the car and enjoyed the scenery on a trip out west. It never happened thank goodness.
I ran across a cute article that actually has some good points about traveling with kids and may give you some ideas of what do do with the kids the next time you all travel together. It's titled Fighting Siblings: 5 Ways To Make Your Kids Get Along On Vacation. Check it out. It may just help keep your sanity.
