Traveling with Kids: What’s Really Worth the Money (and What’s Not)
Summer’s here, the kids are home, and the chaos is real! In today’s episode, we catch up on life, road trips, and the wild adventure of traveling with kids—including Travis’s recent beach camping trip followed by a 7-hour mountain drive. (Spoiler: it's not a vacation... but it's worth it.)
We dive into the big question: What’s actually worth spending money on when traveling with kids—and what’s not?
💸 What we cover:• The expensive things that are 100% worth the cost (and why)• The cheap or free hacks that make travel way smoother• Why snacks are your #1 travel survival tool 🍿• Daily life upgrades: good tech, safe gear, and yes—a quality mattress 🛏️• How we approach budgeting with the "value scale" in mind (e.g., $6 coffee vs. $10 bag that lasts all week)
The truth? Value is subjective—and what feels like a splurge might actually be the smartest investment you can make as a parent.
Whether you're planning a trip, navigating summer with kids, or just trying to get more out of your budget, this episode is packed with insights, laughs, and real-world dad wisdom.
