 Camping Tips for a better Family Experience
Tent Camping can be a lot of fun for families, friends, fishing anglers & hunters and it doesn't matter where you are tent camping at, if you have not put together a checklist of essentials to bring with you then you will find out that your camping experience can turn primitive fast, depending on where you are planning to camp. A tent camping checklist is a must prior to leaving on your journey to wherever your destination of choice may be, how long are you planning on staying, how many people are in your group and what type of facilities are available. For example, the place you are going, some resorts and state parks offers tent camping and in most cases they will have showers, bathrooms & local stores available in the event you forgot something or are you going to be tent camping on a mountain miles away from civilization, these are very important questions to ask yourself.

We are a society of convenience and its bad when you forgot something so simple but extreme, like toilet paper, well this is just one item. How many more things can you think of now with this thought in mind? That's why having a tent camping check list that has everything from your tent, small rope for hanging lights and tying down things like your tent. And don't forget sleeping bags, folding chairs,  right type of clothing depending on the weather, proper footwear, do you have a rainsuit for everybody, food, drinks, cooking utensils, portable gas stove or grill. Is there water readily available for washing dishes or are you doing paper plates. Remember trash bags, lighting is it gas, electric or battery operated, a portable table for feeding the family and matches for a fire. Are you planning to go fishing, hunting or hiking? Then remember items needed for those hobbies.
Oh, don't forget the camera this is one of the most important items that is forgotten, your forever memories.

 By now, you are probably thinking, gee's we are only going to be gone for a weekend, do I really need all of this stuff, is my vehicle going to be big enough or will I need a trailer? It's your call because everyone is different some don't give a hoot and like to ruff it, it doesn't matter if they take a shower or brush their teeth and don't even need a portable potty, most of us can't live without these essentials to go tent camping. Remember this is your extended home for the weekend or however long you intend to stay and you will be surprised with the proper packing a lot will fit in all of your compartments of your vehicle.
 
Tent Camping is a way for all of us to break away from the dreaded JOB and releases all of the stresses we have acquired. And a vacation will give you a break from reality for you and the entire family, but without planning and having a good checklist that applies to your situation can be a disaster and leave you thinking, "Why did we decide to do this tent camping thing in the first place?" On the bright side with the proper planning ahead of time, it can be the most memorable experience for the entire family or friends to last a lifetime. There are millions of people that get out in the great outdoors each year to enjoy nature at its best tent camping.
