Mount Rushmore: 6 Tips Every Family Needs Before They Go.

With America's 250th birthday on July 4th — just 31 days away — families all over the country are adding Mount Rushmore to their summer plans. We wanted to make sure you're actually ready when you get there.

We cover everything from parking (it matters more than you'd think) to the one moment that had all four of our boys completely silent. That's saying something.

We've spent months covering the Black Hills — Needles Highway, Custer State Park, the Badlands — and Mount Rushmore is the crown jewel of the whole series. If it's on your list this summer, watch this first. It will save you time, money, and at least one frustrated kid moment. 😄

We've been sitting on this one for a little while, and with America's 250th birthday coming up on July 4th, it finally felt like the right moment.

We took all four boys to Mount Rushmore on our Black Hills trip this year. And we’ll be honest — we thought we knew what to expect. Four presidents carved into a mountain. Drive up, look up, drive away.

Mount Rushmore surprised us. It's bigger, more emotional, and more logistically tricky than we anticipated. We made some mistakes I don't want your family to make — and we found a few moments in that park that genuinely stopped us in our tracks.

Today at 5:30 PM, we're dropping our complete family survival guide: 6 things every family needs to know before visiting Mount Rushmore.

If there was ever a summer to take your kids to see this place — this is the one. America turns 250 on July 4th. That's not something you get to witness twice in a lifetime.

Did you know Nebraska has its own drive-through wildlife safari? 🦬

We took all four boys through Lee G. Simmons Wildlife Safari Park in Ashland, NE — and let's just say the bison didn't exactly keep their distance. 😅

If you're looking for something different to do with the kids this summer that won't break the bank, this one is seriously worth knowing about. We put together an honest full family guide — what to bring, what to expect, and how it stacks up against a day at Henry Doorly Zoo.

There's a moment in parenting where you stop narrating and just... watch.

We had one of those moments at Badlands National Park.

Four boys — loud, hungry, constantly asking when the next snack is — and they went completely quiet. No one told them to. No screens to compete with. Just this ancient, alien landscape stretching out in every direction, and four kids trying to figure out how something this big even exists.

We've been doing this parent thing for a while now. We know how rare those moments are.

We almost didn't go. The drive felt long. The budget felt tight. The logistics of moving six people across South Dakota felt like a lot for a park we weren't sure the boys would appreciate.

They appreciated it.

And then some.

We made a video about everything we learned — the entrance most families skip, the hidden fossil trail that made our youngest feel like a real explorer, the wind situation nobody warns you about, and the bison moment I genuinely didn't see coming.

It's our most honest guide yet. Because Badlands deserves an honest guide.

If you've ever thought about taking your family there — or if you went years ago and want to go back — I think this one's for you.

New video just dropped and I have to tell you — a donkey stuck its entire head through our car window while my son was sitting right there. Total chaos. We have it on camera. 😂

That's Custer State Park Wildlife Loop in a nutshell — and it just became a non-negotiable on any Black Hills trip.

We cover the full loop, the bison herd that stopped traffic, a free trail nobody talks about, and the entrance fee that surprises most families at the gate.

If you're planning a South Dakota trip — or just want to watch our kids lose their minds over wildlife — this one's for you. 🦬🫏

We almost didn't make it. 🌨️

Needles Highway in South Dakota had just reopened for the season — and we were one of the first families to drive it. The problem? We hit unexpected weather, a van full of four boys, and zero guarantee the road would even stay open.

What we found on the other side was absolutely worth it.

Granite spires. Narrow tunnels. Wildlife around every turn. And one of the most jaw-dropping drives in America that most families have NO idea exists.

We made the full video so your family knows exactly what to expect — the good, the wild, and the stuff nobody tells you before you go.

Is taking the whole family to an Omaha Supernovas game actually worth it? 🏐
