Essential items you need to pack for your spring road trip

Now is the perfect time to take a spring road trip because there’s nothing more liberating than hitting the open road. So, grab a car, rally up your family or friends and bring these essential items to make the most out of your travels:

• Great playlists — your favorite tunes or podcast episodes will rescue you in times of boredom.

• Variety of snacks — pack some energizing food options to keep you going.

• Blankets — these can be for picnics, comfort in the car or warmth if you get stranded in the cold.

• First Aid Kit — anything can happen.
