Keep them distracted
You need to keep the kids distracted from fighting against one another or in some cases from throwing up. You can get them to play a game of scrabble with you inside the vehicle. All you need to do is to ensure that you take off their stress from the long drive by engaging them in conversations or playing games with them to lighten up their moods. You can even take them to one of the best restaurants in Adelaide Hills in town to appreciate their good behavior.
Avoid consuming food inside the car
It is best that you avoid consuming food inside the car, because you will not only have to clean all the spills and stains.

So, always get out of the car before consuming the food!
