Believe it or not, our family was never a camping family before we hit the road fulltime. We took a few glamping trips with family, but nothing wild and crazy. Now that we have lived on the road fulltime for three years, we couldn’t imagine our life without camping. Even if we came off the road, we would still love to take camping trips with friends.
And while our kids live this lifestyle every day, I understand many go camping seasonally. It is fun to dream about your trip and make a plan for all the things you’re going to do while camping. So why not add in a little fun learning too.
Camping is such a popular family activity during the summer and early fall, that I couldn’t pass up the chance to search out some printable packs and crafts to get you excited about your trip. And of course, snacks and meal ideas to feed you while you’re there!
Whether you’re camping in your backyard, taking a week-long camping trip, or longer, you’ll love these camping themed resources.
Download the printables to use before you leave (or on your drive), use the activities to round out your unit, and cook up some delicious treats while you’re there!
