Get the family together and tell them you are off on a family camping vacation. Getting away from the WWII, play station 3 and the x-box can be a very positive experience. This is a good experience, showing kids that you can have fun, without all the high tech toys.
Buying camping equipment is easy. Go to a store, get a coffee pot, tent, sleeping bags and a stove. Go to a nearby grocery store and pick up food you will need. Gather up the family and leave all the high tech toys at home.
Kids may complain for a day or two about the hard ground, early sunrise, or dirt, but after a day or two they will forget all about it. This will be a great opportunity to get to know your kids. They will be excited to try new things like hiking, swimming in the lake, or fishing. Having time to talk around the campfire at night and enjoy the smores for dessert will make a special memory.
Before you leave the house put some board games in the car, then you can enjoy a game night while having a camp fire. After the games sing some songs and share some stories, while roasting marshmallows. The family will enjoy the stories a lot more and they will be appreciated.
Maybe you are asking where to go camping. Look on the internet and type in where you live. Most areas have state parks within 50 miles or a campground of some kind.
Some like to camp on beaches and some like to go into the woods. Our country is surrounded by beauty, from the rolling hills and tall mountains to the oceans, lakes and streams. Nature is all around you, we just need to take the time to enjoy it. One can even take the family pet with them.
A fun family idea while you are camping is to go fishing. It is great fun when you catch your first fish. Roasting marshmallows over an open fire, while listening and identifying the night sounds is always fun.
Sounds of nature are all around us and the best way to enjoy them is with the family. Most campgrounds have bathroom and shower facilities so one can wash up. Some even offer running water and electricity.
Going camping with no high tech toys and cell phones is the best part of camping. The things seen will be unforgettable and the kids will keep busy with their made up games. Enjoying the animals flying overhead or scampering on the ground is another special treat of camping.
If you want to teach your children history, take them camping. Spend time with a ranger who can share the history of the area you are visiting. Take time just to be quiet and enjoy the day and night sounds, and try to identify what you hear. It will be amazing all the different animals there are.
Becoming closer as a family cannot be avoided when going camping. This will be a very special time and long remembered. Doing new things is a must when going camping. Sharing times of laughter and mistakes is a great way to get to know each other better.
