The perfect activities to get your kids connecting with nature and loving their camping trip!
Camping trips are a great (and affordable) way to get your kids to enjoy their surroundings and take a break from too much screen time. We've compiled a list of our top 5 camping activities for you and your little adventurers.
Nature Scavenger Hunts
Engage your little adventurers in a thrilling nature scavenger hunt. You can do this by writing a list of items they can find in the surrounding wilderness, such as a unique leaf, a smooth pebble, or a feather. Whoever wins can have the first campfire smore!
Campfire Tales
Gather around the crackling campfire as dusk falls, and let storytelling come alive in the wilderness. Encourage your kids to share their tales or pass down traditional stories from generation to generation. At the same time, don't forget to get toasting marshmallows over the campfire or BBQ. Also be fire safety conscious and don't put yourself, your property or others in harm's way.
Nature Crafts
Tap into your little one's creativity by engaging them in nature-inspired crafts. Collect fallen branches, leaves, and pine-cones to create fairy houses, woodland creatures, or natural dream-catchers.
Outdoor Games and Sports
Unleash the spirit of adventure with outdoor games and sports. Set up a friendly game of capture-the-flag, rounders or football, or create an obstacle course using fallen logs and natural obstacles. These activities promote teamwork, physical fitness, and a sense of healthy competition while immersing your little ones in the joy of outdoor play. You can even use these adorable mini tractors to host races!
Stargazing and Nighttime Exploration
Embrace the majesty of the night sky by hosting a stargazing session. Lay out blankets and cosy up with your campers as you identify constellations. Don't forget that your kids might need some cosy socks or jumpers.
Whether you're having a weekend camp-at-home or you're rolling away in your caravan, we know that the kids won't stop raving about their time!
