Camping with children is an exciting activity that is not only for vacation but also provides education for children. Introducing them to the great outdoors will certainly give them a positive experience.

However, camping alone and with children is certainly a different situation, right? There are many things that need to be prepared so that children can remain safe and comfortable during camping.

So, what preparations for camping with children need to be done? 

Here are 5 preparations for camping with children that you can learn and use as a reference to keep the activity running smoothly.

1. Choose the Right Camping Location

One of the most crucial things in preparing for camping with children is choosing a camping site. A safe, spacious place with beautiful natural scenery and good facilities will make children comfortable.

It is advisable to choose a campsite if this is your first time camping with children. Book the place well in advance and even do an observation to know what facilities are available at that location.

Is there already a tent, warm sleeping bag, and lights at the chosen place? If available, check whether these items are clean and comfortable for the children you will bring. These questions must be clearly answered so that the activity is not disrupted by discomfort felt by the children.

2. Complete Equipment

Not only tents, beds, blankets, or lights, but you also need to prepare cleaning supplies well.

Campsites usually have shared toilets. However, due to the number of visitors at the campsite, the toilet may be full when you want to use it.

You should bring wet wipes as a backup that can be used to clean the child when water is not available. These wet wipes can also be useful for cleaning the child's hands or feet after they have enjoyed playing in the open field.

In addition to wet wipes, you will also need lotion to keep the child's skin moisturized in open areas that are usually hotter or colder, causing dry skin. Mosquito repellent lotion is also very much needed because there are many mosquitoes in open places.

3. Bring Favorite Toys

Children who are not used to spending long periods in the outdoors, even for a few days, will certainly experience tantrums. Therefore, bringing favorite toys is essential.

Dolls, pillows, robots, and toy cars should be brought to make the child feel that the location is still their home, for the time being. However, of course, do not overdo it. Just bring one or two to distract the child when they are fussy.

4. Maintain Body Condition

Staying in the great outdoors will provide a different sensation of body condition compared to staying at home. If adults can get sick, children are certainly more vulnerable, right?

Maintaining the child's body condition is one of the important things in preparing for camping with children. Keep their bodies fit by providing healthy food and giving them multivitamins.

5. Do Not Bring Gadgets

One of the goals of camping with children is to introduce them to nature. When their daily routine is school, only seeing buildings, and even playing with gadgets at home, camping becomes an activity that allows them to explore themselves and their surroundings more freely.

One of the preparations for camping with children is not to bring gadgets. Gadgets will distract them from the freedom to explore the nature around them and only focus on games or videos on gadgets.

When you want to take photos, use a camera. Let the children play freely and leave the gadgets in the car or store them in the tent.

These five preparations for camping with children can be applied to ensure that the camping activity remains comfortable and safe. Children will surely have an unforgettable exciting experience.
