Enhance Your Camping Experience With These Tips 

Sleeping under the stars is fun, but you need to plan ahead to have a nice, easy trip. These tips can really help you out for your next trip. TIP! Bring a survival kit that you can carry on your person at all times. This kit should feature a survival knife, waterproof matches, tablets for purifying water, a flare gun, and a first-aid kit. Buy a sleeping bag which will suit the weather you will be in. Don’t take a heavy sleeping bag out in the summer, it could make you sweat and be uncomfortable all night long. The reverse is also true. Using a light, cool sleeping bag in the middle of winter will keep you very cold. Packing the wrong sleeping supplies is certainly uncomfortable, and it might even become dangerous. TIP! Attend a class in first aid; this is a really good idea if you are camping with children. With the training you receive, you will be better prepared to handle an accident or other emergency situation while you wait for medical assistance. Preparation could mean the difference between a good camping experience and a dreaded one. Make sure you always go camping only after preparing yourself fully. Especially if you are camping in a new location, take the time to research the wildlife, plants, geography, and climate of the area. TIP!

A jungle breakfest is a great way to add excitement to your trip. Take mini-boxes of cereal, juice boxes and fruit out into the woods, and tie them to the trees. Once the children are awake, tell them they need to forage for their meal. The kids will love it. Try combining a swimming experience with your camping experience. When you go camping, you can miss out on things like showers. Swimming can help you feel a little cleaner. TIP! Don’t forget the duct tape when you pack for a camping trip, to solve just about any dilemma! It’s easy to use, can hold out moisture and will even fix a leak or a broken shoe! Talk to your children and friends about the dangers and risks of camping before embarking on your journey. Get online with them and show them what poison ivy, poisonous snakes, and other dangers look like. This will help your kids know what to avoid when exploring. TIP! Camping is about being one with nature and living off the basics, but it is important to go prepared. Not only should you carry a sleeping bag, a few blankets are a good idea also. Are you a beginning camper and have just purchased your first tent? Before you go out and start on your trip, practice setting up your tent.
