Attractions between NJ and Yellowstone
My wife and I are first time RV'ers driving from NJ to Yellowstone with 2 kids (11 & 9) this August. What are some of the attractions not to be missed along the way? We're thinking of doing day stop...

With kids that age, you might want to stop at one of the State Fairs for a day along the way. The Indiana State Fair is August 7-23. Illinois is August 13-23. Iowa is August 13-23. Nebraska is August 28- September 7.
Depending on your route, there is the The Great Platte River Road Archway Museum and Fort Kearny State Park along I-80 in Nebraska. There are a number of other museums and things to do in Kearny that could make a day or two stop including a Cabela's. The original Cabela's in Sidney, NE has a campground.
If you do go to South Dakota, Devils Tower and the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monuments are potential stops along the way to Yellowstone.
If you go through Thermopolis, WY; there is the Dinosaur Museum, Hot Springs State Park and Legend Rock Petroglyph Site.
Cody, WY has the Buffalo Bill Center Museum Complex, Old Trail Town and nightly rodeo.
In Yellowstone, the kids might like the Chuckwagon Cookout.
Hope you have a Great Trip!!
