What to see. My most MUST: Royal Tyrell Museum, dinosaurs Drumheller, AB
I strongly prefer to drive in areas where side roads get you to some destination, rather than heavily trafficed 4-lane or twinned highways. These will give you and the children more to see as you drive.
Two weeks is a very short time.
I did The Maritimes to Skagway, AK and back in about 6 weeks last year. I did a lot less walking than I had expected. Minimum of 10 days each way!!
Where to sleep. Where you can park. I ddn't try stopping on the side of the road if I was very tired because I had heard you can't do that out there. But anywhere you can park can mean the parking lot of something like Tim Hortons, Wallmart, if they agree. Some will include hospital parking and church parking. I'd rather be with woods around me, because I have dogs. I only used about 5 campgrounds on the whole trip.
Cash, yes, you need some of that in your stuff. Some campgrounds only take cash and have no connections to pay by plastic. Carry at least $100.00 at all times.
Sort out a route 1 way going and another route (way or path) returning. That will make the trip more interesting to all of your party.
Enjoy.
