If you like the idea of the great outdoors, but cringe at the thought of sleeping under the stars, we have good news for you – you can “camp out” with your kids in the safety of your own home with nothing more than a sheet, a few towels or blankets, and a flashlight.
Throw the sheet over your kitchen or dining room table and voila – instant tent.
Fashion a sleeping bag for each kid from a large beach towel or blanket.
Pass out flashlights (with rechargeable batteries), then turn out the room lights.
You can spice up the great campout by making a “campfire” from toilet paper tubes decorated as logs.
In that case, you might as well go all the way and let your kids “roast” marshmallows over the “coals.”
Toddlers and preschoolers will simply enjoy the fun of hanging out in the enclosed space.
Older kids might want to lead an expedition or tell ghost stories. You can oblige by providing the necessary sound effects … and a hand to hold if the need arises
Kitchen Camping is a fun Indoor Play activity that provides great entertainment and will exercise your childrens creative and imaginative skills.
