3 Guidelines For Living In An RV With Toddlers
People ask us all the time. “How do you live in an RV with toddlers and not get claustrophobic?”. Well to be honest, some days are really hard. Most days are great! A lot of it has to do with your mentality to the whole experience. There are also some guidelines to having a good time. If it’s a rough day we’ve probably violated one of these guidelines.
Get Out!
The whole purpose of us living in RV has been to travel and be closer to the great outdoors. We want to be outside of the RV as much as we can. Which means we are adventuring and doing more of what we love. Even on the days we need to stay in more, its important to get out and do something.
Go on a hike. Get outside and play. Explore somewhere fun. Take a little walk. Go to the store. It makes all the difference. Think of the RV as a sleeping and eating space more than a living space. There are times you need and want the living space but you should be mostly living outdoors.
Clutter Kills
Nothing makes a space feel small like clutter. Living in an RV with toddlers can feel small enough. Ad in some dirty dishes and toys left out everywhere and things feel real small in a hurry. There is just something about having a clean and orderly house that makes everyone happy. Living in an RV is no different.
The great thing about living in a small space is how easy it is to clean up. When I find myself getting frustrated, it usually has to do with clutter. If we stop what we are doing and clean up. We can have the whole place spic and span in a few short minutes. Try to pull that off in a big house!
Take Deep Breaths
Sometimes toddlers will act just like toddlers. Some days are just hard. It’s important to remember to take a big breath. Remember, “Make Them The Reason…” Give someone or everyone a hug. Or try to find the humor in the situation. Everything will be alright.
Living in an RV with toddlers is an adjustment. Most days are great! Some days are a little harder. All in all? It is totally worth it!
