Camping with your kids can be such a rewarding experience. Our kids absolutely love getting out into the bush and spending time in nature. A few years ago, we enjoyed our biggest camping trip, in which we spent 6 months driving around Australia.
To help you and your family enjoy camping, I have collected a list of some amazing camping printables and activities that your children are sure to love.
There are so many ways to learn and have fun while camping. Here are a few!
- Go for a walk through nature
- Go on a scavenger hunt
- Build a campfire
- Cook on a campfire
