Camping...

The weather hasn't been cooperating where we live so I was thinking about this to keep summer alive this season. Plus, it will be a trial run to see if I can actually take my kiddos camping outside when the sun decides to come out.

Camping in your living room:

Move your furniture and pitch a tent

Use sleeping bags

Use flash lights

Turn off all lights

Play card games

Read/tell stories

Open the window or screen to get some fresh air

Make smores

Grill hot dogs

Turn on the fire place

Get a wild life CD for wilderness noise

Use only camping gear when cooking

Go for a walk outside when you all wake up

I am sure you get the idea! Have fun with it... the kiddos will have a blast!
