Picking A Great Family Camping Tent

Have you ever noticed that we are more likely to do things as adults that we were exposed to as children? This seems to hold true for a number of activities. Even if we do try new things as adults we may not be as comfortable doing them as we are doing the things that we grew up doing. For example my husband grew up in a family that hunted, fished and spent a great deal of time in the woods and on the lake. Being outdoors to him is second nature.

I grew up out in the country on a farm. We did not do a great deal of hunting but my dad did take us fishing a few times a year. Being outside was something we had to do in order to get the work done on the farm. My mother had a huge garden that we helped tend and we helped with the crops and cattle. Occasionally we would pitch a tent in the backyard, but we never did any formal camping. When we got married my husband and I began taking many camping trips. I had done some camping in college and found that I really enjoyed it. One we had our children we decided we wanted to introduce them to camping also. We went looking for a family camping tent. The one that we had just would not be comfortable for more than two people. When we camped as a couple we had noticed different family camping tents in the campsites.

We found a great family camping tent at one of the major sporting goods stores in our area. The tent actually had rooms that you could add on to it. When you entered the tent there was an opened space that was large enough to accommodate a folding camp style picnic table. We already had this. It folds into a suit case. It is perfect if it is raining you can set it up inside the tent. This space could also hold gear that you did not want outdoors over night. There were then two separate areas that had a tent wall in-between and a fold down flap to provide privacy for getting dressed. So the family camping tent was accurately a three room tent. There was the capability of zipping up a third wall within the front space to create a fourth room. We liked that the inside rooms had drop down walls that could be tied back or left closed rather than being zipped. Opening and closing that many zippers would have been annoying for anyone trying to sleep and also zippers with kids have a tendency to get caught or break. We are glad that we are raising our kids to enjoy the outdoors.

How To Find A Great Camping Spot

If you want to go on a camping vacation, you will be faced with the decision on where to go. Many experienced campers have their favorite spots but if you want to try something new or are a novice camper, you will need to know how to choose a great camping spot. The first thing you will want to determine is whether or not you will be renting a recreational vehicle or sleeping outside in a tent. There are different grounds available for RV owners and those who are camping in tents. There are also features that you may want to be aware of when traveling with certain age groups. Some areas are more amenable to adults only while others are family friendly. The more populated areas are generally the ones that are best for smaller children and families.

Tent Size Considerations

The size of the tent you choose is a very important consideration.

In prior articles we discussed how to pick a tent based on what weather conditions you are planning to camp in. Now we will discuss how to choose the correct size.

The first rule of thumb is never to buy a tent that you can't get into, walk around in, lie down in and stand up in. In other words find a camping store where the tents are set up.

Now consider how many adults and children will be sleeping in the tent. Will you be using sleeping bags and/or air mattresses? How much gear are you planning to take and stow in the tent? When you visit the store take your sleeping bag with you, or borrow one from the store. Lay it out on the floor in the tent. Now, consider three or four more, depending on the size of your group. How much room is left?

The Ultimate Experience of Tent Camping

If someone were to ask me of my favorite experience while outdoors with my father, I would immediately respond "tent camping!" When my brother and I were younger, our parents were determined to help us experience the most out of our summer vacations and still spend time with them. Thus, instead of signing us up to join a summer camp, since they were both working individuals and time was back then a luxury, my parents decided to split their summer vacations in such way so as to increase our ability to vacate with them; even if that meant that we would have to spend more time first with the one and later with the other.
