Traveling as a family can be a fantastic way to connect and to experience new things together. If you have little ones, it can also be stressful.
Today we're going to go over some travel tips and hacks that parents can use to make things less stressful and still snag a great deal on your next family trip!
Are you guys planning to travel this season? We are.
These past few years, we’ve developed a rhythm where we travel to catch the changing of the leaves.
I will say with the girls now 11 and 7, trips are a lot more fun. We get to have some great conversations in the car. We explore new places to eat or hike together. My kids have gotten really good with recording pictures and videos of our trips.
Now rewind a few years, and things felt different. We still enjoyed traveling when they were babies and toddlers – got the pics to prove it – but it was a little challenging.
Vacations were a bit of work at that stage and maybe you feel the same. The good news is that there are different tricks that can make family vacations more enjoyable for everyone.

Did you know that it’s estimated that there are currently over 24 million “forgotten” 401(k) accounts? In fact, the average American changes jobs every 4 years.
And because of the Great Resignation, you or someone you know might be changing jobs even more
It’s an extreme case of out of sight and out of mind. Is your old 401(k) in there somewhere, left behind at a job you're no longer with?
One huge benefit of an IRA is choosing how your money is invested, not your old employer.
If you want to consolidate your old 401(k) and have more options with how you invest, it may be time to roll them over into an IRA.
With Capitalize, they handle the process from start to finish – for FREE and yes that includes calling the 401(k) provider on your behalf.
