Stinking up the campground was one of the fun parts of camping. I know I’m not the typical girl!
Also have you ever made the rice crispy treats while camping? We used to do that at bible camp. Then you just scoop them . They don’t really have any shape, but it’s fun!

Sounds like fun! My husband grew up in a family of 8 kids and the only vacations they took were camping trips. He has the most wonderful childhood memories. His mother kept a journal of their trips and now that she passed away, they can read all her memories. What awesome memories you are making for your children!

I wouldn’t require the kids to take a shower while it’s this cool outside. During the summer though, it’s a must!

BTW, we do ALL of our cooking over the campfire! We have a nice 5th wheel camper, but still chose to cook over the fire, even during the summer:)

It’s going to be kind of cold, I wouldn’t take a shower. We don’t camp at a campground that has showers, normally. But, we have a port. shower we rarely use. Usually, we’re by a stream and just bathe in it… during warm months. But, this time of year, I wouldn’t even think about it. I would wait till we got home.

I’ll be honest with you, I am lucky if I can get my son to take a shower at home, you might as well forget the camp shower.

Have fun!

You are not really cooking all that food on a campfire are you? I could not survive camping without my campstove.

First my question then I will answer yours What are mountain pies?

As for showers – most of the time we shower everyday because we are swimming. When we winter camp which is more rare, we only shower if it is absolutely necessary.
