Three accident-proof games for your next family camping trip

Though they take a lot of time for preparation, family camping trips are fun. But children will tend to get bored in these trips especially when they’re away from the comfort of their home.

So, here are three camping activities that will make sure your children won’t utter the words “I’m bored.”

1. Scavenger hunt

Kids love scavenger hunts, and the outdoors is a great place to hold one. Have them collect items that are readily available in the area. Use cloth bags rather than plastic to store items. To make it a little competitive, have the losing team roast and serve marshmallows at night.

2. Camping Olympics

This is an all-day event that can turn your camping trips to one of the most memorable ever. Long jump can be done on a sandy beach, relay races in an open area, and swimming competitions in the water. Grab a rope to play tug-of-war. Just remember to keep it light for younger kids.

3. Cloud watching

This is perfect for when you want to rest after an exhausting day of games and activities. Just spread out a blanket in a shady spot and stare at the sky. You can play I spy or just chill out and tell stories.
