Things to do with kids in the campground.

Set the table

Meal Time

Let the kids be a big part of your camping trip.

SET THE TABLE with craft time place settings.

Setting the table can be a family event especially with fun camp treatments the kids can create as part of their camping day. Find oversized paper to use as placemats, let the kids create their place settings with crayons or glued pieces of paper. Craft stores carry stickers, stamps, colored pencils. Make part of the decoration something about the day’s activities, drawing the wildlife, telling a story. Let them set the table with colorful party plates, whimsical napkins, and multi-color eating utensils.

Sometimes things to do with kids can be simple things. The best part it is all disposable, especially if you use paper. Save the artwork or roll them into bundles to start the campfire.
