Campgrounds & RV Parks

If you have been looking for something to do with your children that involves spending a lot of quality time together, camping may be one of the best activities to accomplish those goals. At first, it might seem overwhelming to go camping with your children because they get bored easily and (gasp!) there won’t be video games on the trip. But if you aren’t afraid to put in some extra time and preparation, you can have a great camping trip that the entire family will remember for a lifetime.

  1. Let your children be involved in the planning. Kids really enjoy events and activities when they are given a chance to help plan them. If you plan the trip yourself without any input from your children, it just makes them feel like they are being dragged somewhere with no choice. But if you teach them how to read the maps and let them plan the route to take, they will be more involved in the trip overall. Also, let them help you make a checklist of what to see and what to bring. They will love the added responsibility that you give them.

  2. Allow your children to have individual experiences. As part of allowing them to map out the trip, ask each of your children what they would like to do or see during the trip. Each of your children might want to do something different and accommodating the wishes of each of them will help you make the most of your camping trip. Make it mandatory for everybody to go along with what each person wants to do because it will help expand everyone’s horizons and their appreciation for nature. The campground owners may even be able to make some age-appropriate suggestions for places and sites you should see during your camping trip. KOA Campgrounds, for instance, offers a list of activities for a variety of ages to help you enjoy your camping experience. Chances are, they've found some new interests during the winter - say, photography, art, plants, animals/insects or something that can be experienced in a new way on the trip.

  3. Make sure there is plenty of family time. Camping is a way to help you bond with your family. If you don’t allocate some time and activities specifically for family time, you could have a wasted trip. Plan daily activities for the entire family, such as fishing, sitting around the campfire or something that is relaxing. This will help you bond and even learn more about each other.

  4. Give your kids the responsibility of commemorating the trip. Can you imagine how good a child must feel when you give them such a huge responsibility as commemorating the family camping trip? You’ll be amazed at how seriously they take the task and how proud they will be of their completed project. Bring a disposal digital camera for them to take pictures and anything else they will need to have fun with the project.

  5. Bring some fun and delicious camping recipes. There are many great foods you can make while you are out camping and letting your children make the meals and treats will help them app...

With the fall soccer season starting any day now (if it hasn't already), I thought I'd take the opportunity to offer a few words of wisdom on outfitting your child. Hopefully they're not too late and, even if they are for this year, there's always next season.
