Not sure if there’s anything like this but driving from North La to Orlando next month with a toddler. Will be needing to stop every few hours to let her burn some energy. Any sites that cater to this? Such as putting in your travel starting position and destination and it shows you parks, etc., right off the interstate?
I know I could find stuff with enough planning but didn’t know if there places to look and make it easier.

I mean both Google Maps and Waze allow you to add stops. Probably just typing in to original route and following till you see an area you think would be good for a stop.

Yes but have to find the places first. Nothing that a little preparation won’t fix but didn’t know if there were any sites like that already existing.

iExit app is helpful on interstate trips. It shows the upcoming exits, distance to them, and what can be found (fuel, food, lodging, etc.) at each.

It takes some attention, so it's best to have a passenger use it and give info to the driver.

We like using https://www.roadsideamerica.com/ to find the unusual roadside attractions. They're usually quick stops that don't cost a thing, but allow you to stretch your legs for just a few minutes.
