Ways to make your child's first camp memorable “Camping” is just another word for fun.Well, at least for kids! Most kids are excited about their first camp and have every reason to be. Camping can give a kid some real life-changing experiences. If you are going on your first family camp, here are a few things that you can do to make it memorable: 1. Choosing the right camp for your child is the first step in making the experience memorable for him or her. Sobefore making any decisions, sit down with your child and ask him/her what he/she would like to do during the vacations. List the options in front of your child and then let him/her choose. Do not force them into doing anything they don’t like. Memories are made while doing something you love and that’s what your child should do. 2. Have a theme dinner night during the camp. Dinner at home with the whole family is always great, but a fun theme dinner in the outdoors is a unique bonding experience! 3. Keep a track of all the items you are packing and label them. After all, you don’t want your kid to lose his favourites on a camp. 4. Carry mosquito repellents with you- you never know whether the camping site is safe from these menacing insects. Carry outdoor repellents like Goodknight Fabric Roll-On and Goodknight Patches. Just apply 4 dots of the Fabric Roll-On on your child’s clothes and in case of the Patches, simply stick them onto the back of your child’s T-shirt so that he/she doesn’t take them off. Both these are 100% natural and pediatrician certified. The best part is that these repellents need to be applied on your child’s clothes and/or prams, cots and strollers, eliminating any contact with the skin. These revolutionary products ensure that your kid gets all-round protection from mosquitoes outdoors for up to 8 hours. 4. Get your kids involved right away by letting them help set up camp. They can help establish areas for cooking, cleaning, tents and garbage, or complete tasks like setting up their tent. It’s all a part of the experience and a great way to pass on skills onto the next generation. 5. Telling stories around a campfire might be a cliché, but it’s a great time to share family memories of camping during the past years or your own childhood. One day, your kid might be reliving the experiences with his or her own family, continuing the tradition. Follow these tips and your kid will have an amazing first camp!
