Family Fun Camping Excursions
Written by MichaelZ on March 13, 2010 – 10:12 am -Camping is great for family bonding. Try a few days in the woods without any electronics for a time that the family learns to communicate and gets to know each other once again.
There is a lot of work to be done to make your camping trip an enjoyable experience. If you do not have a camp stove, you may have to cook over a campfire. Food may taste a bit different than you are used to and it will take longer to cook. When you finish, you will be reminded that there is no dishwasher at your campsite, so you will have to wash all dishes that are not disposable by hand.
The good news is that without electronics, you will have lots of time that you can use for nature walks or to go to see the ranger’s nightly shows. Take time to view all the wildlife as well as flowers that bloom along the path. Even if the kids are too noisy and scare the animals away, take time to enjoy the beautiful plants and wild flowers you will see on those hikes. Be sure that you breathe in all the fresh air you can.
After the dishes have been put away, you can enjoy a family game night with s’mores for a late night treat.
That sounds like such fun, perhaps you should stop reading right now and get online to make your reservation right now. Stop reading and go on. Get ‘er done.
Now that we have cleared out that crowd, here is some more information for the rest of us. If that trip sounds exactly why you have quit camping, listen to this. Many campgrounds have electrical hookups. You will find plenty of power to keep all your favorite electronics charged and to keep the kids happy. If you do not want to cook, you can Mickey D’ a few blocks down the road so that you do not have to worry about paper plates, forks or clean up.
We do have one request. Do not let your neighbors in the campground know that you brought all the conveniences. They think you are roughing it just like they are.
