On our way to Florida, we made several stops along the journey. Traveling for multiple days can be tiring, but our visit to Pennsylvania for a few days worked out perfectly. We had the chance to reconnect with friends from a former homeschool co-op.
We stayed at Thousand Trails Timothy Lake South in East Stroudsburg, PA; the only year-round campground in the area. It can get quite chilly, and we witnessed two RVs having water issues due to freezing temperatures; including a frozen waterfall coming out of their campers. The campsites are fairly close together but are open and sunny. It’s a lovely medium-sized campground that features a pool (which was not open), a playground for kids, and an indoor area with games, books, tables and chairs, and a TV. That indoor room was a lifesaver; the kids would play on the playground for a while, and then we would head inside to warm up and play games.
During our visit, we experienced a bit of rain, which, with two young kids, meant lots of puddles for them to jump in and enjoy. 
While staying at Timothy Lake South, we met our friends in Easton, PA at the Crayola Experience. It was so much fun! You learn a lot about Crayola while the kids have plenty of opportunities to make crayons, create art, and enjoy melting crayons into spin art or shaping them into fun forms like cars or seahorses. There are also plenty of coloring stations available.
Each ticket includes two tokens and one voucher for a Scrubbie character. With the tokens, you can name your crayon (you get a label with a picture and any text you choose), receive a bag of magic clay, or make your own marker. The cost of the ticket and the option to turn it into an annual pass was a no-brainer! We've made good use of those passes, visiting the Crayola Experience in Orlando three times!
