  • Yes. My boys, (now 13& 16) grew up camping on many a spring/summer/fall weekend. Being without tech is key. That’s half the point and fun of it. Let them bring toys of all sorts for both inside and outside the tent.

    Mine always used to bring army men damned near everywhere. I’m sure there’s piles of them at dozens of sites we camped at over the years. Water guns if it’s warm. Glow sticks for at night. Play in the mud and the rain. Get dirty. stay up late.

    Extra socks and maybe a change of shoes. Let them go barefoot. Don’t over plan too much. See what’s up. And go with it. We’re getting ready for our vaca ourselves 8+ days of camping across the northeast:) it should be grand
