Camping in the Backyard

It's the second week of my  precious children's  vacation from school so to keep them occupied, I have been doing a lot of things  outdoors with them.  That explains why the update in my blogs is crawling like a turtle lol.  Some of the activities we do includes bike riding, going to the nearby woods with our dog, walking in our neighborhood, gardening, and  we camped at the backyard.

I will post them separately when time permits,  up first is our backyard camping.  We have some  camping gears that we bought, although we haven't ventured  out in camping in the real woods but we have been using it  at our backyard.  It's fun.

Hubby set up the tent at the very first weekend that the kids were off from school so it was a bit cold that's why they are  using blankets with their sleeping bags.  We brought snacks and books  and camp out for  almost a week.

They caught a cold after  that but at least they got to enjoy  camping.

We put  them away yesterday as we are leaving  next week for our vacation.

  1. Not that I have a backyard where something like that could be set up-nor do I have children to sleep in one (I personally prefer the indoors in a bed!)--but I do remember doing this in the summer at my grandparents house-I never did make the whole night--I preferred indoor comfort even then!! Sorry to hear they caught colds-hopefully they will get over them quickly!!

  3. This looks like so much fun for kids and adults! I always wanted to go camping and have a tent. Backyard camping sounds much easier and safer.

  4. How fun! I also let my kids camp out in our yard during summer. It helps prepare little ones for camping other places and the bigger kids always seem to feel more grown up when allowed to do it by themselves!! Fun Fun!!

  8. I used to camp in the back yard when I was a kid. It looks like your children had a great time. I would like to have a tent to hang out in my back yard but I wouldn't sleep in it.

  19. Awe! Just what I planned on doing as soon as the ground dries up mommy since we've been having some rain lately. I want to camp out in the backyard again and pretend like we are on vacation. The night's are still nice and cool and perfect for camping outside. We used to go camping down at the gravel bar by the river that is part of our farm, then we go hiking and fishing. :)

  23. Brilliant idea, we really have no time for camping and I guess doing it in the backyard is much safer.
