What are some safety activities my children can help with when we camp?

Camping Safety Activities

Getting your children involved with camping activities teaches them the importance of safety at the campsite. If you have toddlers or young children, ask them to tie brightly colored ribbons on the tent stakes and lines, so they will remember to stay clear of them.

Make sure they understand the dangers of fire, and don't leave the campfire unattended, especially with children around. As they get older, teach them how to start a fire on their own.

It's also a nice idea to get each of your children a flashlight. They can keep it with them in case they become frightened or disoriented, and you can never have enough flashlights when you go camping!

Make sure your children know where the campsite is, and how to find it, so they don't get lost. Know where they are at all times, and don't let them wander off. They should understand the dangers and the joys of camping, and let them help with camping activities around the camp to make them more responsible happy campers!
