Unplug
One of the best parts about camping is the break from electronic devices and the distractions they create. Put the charged phones in the car for emergencies and leave the rest of your electronics at home. Many families say the best part about camping is enjoying time outdoors, with family, and away from email, phones, video games, and work distractions. Research some activities you can do in the area if your family enjoys planned ideas. Chances are, you will find plenty to do and enjoy some quiet time outside.
Be flexible
Any time you take a trip with kids, it is important to remember to be flexible. Things may not go exactly as you planned and that is perfectly fine. Make the best of the time together, try to laugh off what doesn’t go well, and be willing to adjust the plan if things aren’t working for your family.
