Traveling with kids can be a difficult task for everyone, but it doesn’t need to be. Below, we will share our favorite RV tips for camping with kids and how to make it more enjoyable for everyone. Learn more below.
Let Them Help Plan
First, you’re going to want to get them involved in the cleaning process this will help them to be excited about the camping trip and have things to look forward to. We especially recommend letting them pick an outing or a place to eat during your stay so that they will feel more involved and important to the vacation
Give Your Kids Plenty of Space
Another great way to ensure your kids have a good time at the campground is to set up a place where they can get some quality me-time. This is especially important if you have teenagers that you’re traveling with, but all kids like to have a little bit of freedom, so setting up a space where they can do that is good. Whether you hang up some hammocks or invest in an RV with a bunkhouse, be sure they have a space of their own.
Get Them Involved
As mentioned, keeping your kids involved in the camping trip is a great way to keep morale up. Get them involved in cooking the meals, cleaning up, and helping start the fire.
Don’t Forget the Bikes
One of the best things you can do for your kids on a camping trip is to bring along bikes. As a kid, I would spend hours a day on my bike, exploring the campground. it was a great form of exercise, it gave me the space I needed, and I enjoyed every minute of it.
Plan Meals They’ll Love
Another way to make your kids feel more comfortable at the campground is to plan meals you know they love. If your kids are looking forward to roasted hotdogs and s’mores, don’t forget to make that a priority for one of your meals. Whatever your kids’ comfort food might be, cooking it at the campground will help improve your experience and theirs.
Plan for Rain
Lastly, you will want to plan for rain no matter when you’re traveling. If you get stuck inside the Rv during a rainy day, be sure you have plenty of board games or movies to watch as a family. Additionally, bring tarps and rain gear so you can cover your outdoor equipment or take a hike in the rain with the family.
