Now what? Here are some of our tips to make your time a memorable one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look up road closures and cancellations ahead of time, y<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ou may not get to the tippy top of every mountain, vista, or trail but there is still so much adventure to be had. Setting these expectations and knowing ahead of time will help your trip go more smoothly.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Hook Ups-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look for campsites with hookups so you can use the heater that Escape Camper Vans provide. Also, many campgrounds with hookups mean you may have a washer\/dryer.\u00a0 Having a dryer to throw things in to warm up is very nice to have during winter adventures. And best yet, some campgrounds with hookups means you\u2019ll have hot showers:)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Blankets<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/extras\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Escape Camper Vans offer many extras<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> including wonderfully warm blankets for your trip which is great! They may even be able to give you another one if you\u2019d prefer. If you aren\u2019t flying and have the space &#8211; be sure and bring along a heated blanket and you can plugin!\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Coats, Hats, Gloves &amp; Boots-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> While this may seem like a given, having the right kind of gear in these areas can be a game-changer in having a good time. Make sure your items are breathable but waterproof. Quick-drying and wool. For babies, to toddlers, we love the one-piece snowsuits for all of the above reasons also because we love getting them off and on quickly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Wear Thermal Layers-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Many times you think of the winter basics above but forget under layers. Be sure and think through what gets the coldest for you and plan to get something cozy for sleep and adventures. For adults, we like the under-layer thermal wear you can find on Amazon. For kids, we love all things Reima here, as they are safer for your kids, environment and are extremely comfortable.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Carry A Thermos and Hot Drinks-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Be sure and bring along your favorite thermos. Having a warm drink on hand at all times will help clearly, warm up your insides and also put a smile on your face:) Here is our favorite thermos.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Purchase Food that Easily Warms Up-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If you find a warmer time of your trip cook up some foods ahead of time, do! We found that the worst part was when we weren\u2019t prepared and had to cook from raw in below zero temps.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Bring A Boot Bag-<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> We suggest this for any season, cuz let&#8217;s be honest feet stink! But we think it\u2019s even great for winter camping because it keeps your wet boots separate from your warm clean clothes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":32151,"id":32151,"title":"Campervan - cooking- heater","filename":"Campervan-cooking-heater-1.jpg","filesize":2418023,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/en-gb\/campervan-cooking-heater-2\/","alt":"Woman cooking while on a winter road trip","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"campervan-cooking-heater-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2021-12-10 19:37:58","modified":"2021-12-13 16:22:52","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2560,"height":1707,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1-300x200.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1-768x512.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":512,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1-1024x683.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":683,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1-1536x1024.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1-2048x1365.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1365,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1-1200x800.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":800,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":200,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":267,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Campervan-cooking-heater-1.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":400}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Things To Do At Night In A Campervan<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have reached your desired destination and are settled in, here are a few things you can do at night inside the campervan, especially if you have the kids!<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kids Jazz &amp; Activities \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lots of Books (tip: if you are saving weight, bring paperback books.)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Road Trip Games (Check out the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/blog\/10-road-trip-activities-for-all-ages\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Escape Blog<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for great ideas!)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Doodle Book Set<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stick Figure Fun (find sticks and make stick figures &amp; stories!)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Travel Mini Games<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Puzzles\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sticker\/Coloring Learning Pages<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn about National parks books for kids.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Free Coloring &amp; Activity printable sheets for your next Escape Campervan adventure!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plan Your Winter Road Trip and Book Your Campervan<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We know this list seems intimidating, especially with kids.
