To celebrate the Twizzlers Landmark Summer™ promotion, Twizzlers is giving consumers the chance tow in a trip to a well-known U.S. landmark destination plus daily, road trip-themed prizes throughout the summer, just by visiting www.twizzlers.com.
Travel expert Emily Kaufman, “The Travel Mom,” is offering tips to sweeten your road trip experiences.
• Plan ahead. Create a packing list two weeks before the scheduled vacation, followed by a trip to the store to purchase needed items. Then, begin packing two or three days before leaving. Finally, pack the car the night before taking off. Spacing out preparation will let you get right to enjoying time with your family.
• Be realistic. No matter how old your kids are (or even the adults) leaving before dawn isn’t a good idea. Drivers need plenty of rest before getting behind the wheel. Consider departing after breakfast once rush hour traffic has eased.
• Create a boredom bag. Convert a hanging travel cosmetic case into a case full of fun and hang it from the seat back in front of the kids’ seats. Fill each pocket with age-appropriate activities that will keep them occupied and organized. Consider creating fun works of art with Twizzlers Pull ‘n’ Peel Candy before snacking on them!
• Think of creative solutions to best use the space you have. For example, try packing a cookie sheet – it will make a great table for snacks or a desktop for writing or coloring. They’re durable and easy to store in the car.
• Think through the snacks you pack. Avoid packing snacks that are easy to spill like juice boxes or snacks that melt. Try plastic bottles with sports tops or lids that can be tightly sealed for drinks. Also, bring along Twizzlers Twists (oh my these are so different and pack a punch!) or Twizzlers Nibs Candy – they are easy to share, making them the perfect car ride treat.
You can also visit the Twizzlers Facebook page to share your own stories, create fun photos and map a unique trip to take.
