HELP! We just returned from camping with our two daughters 4 and 2 and I had an awful time and am rethinking our 11 night camping trip. We were only gone for 3 days and I was miserable. Four year old daughter was constantly asking "What can we do?" I'm hoping that the longer we are camping for the more settled they will become. My husband said that we will be so busy and they will be so tired that it should be fine. I just think that they will be more miserable and irritable. I'm thinking of shortening our camping to 6 nights and then booking 5 nights at ASMo. I think it might be nice to return to hotel room and have a tv as a distraction. I know my life revolves around tv.
1)Do you have any ideas of how to keep 4 & 2 year old occupied at camp site? We brought the basic hoop games,bubbles and balls any other suggestions. Is chalk a good idea (I think I read that there is a paved area at each camp site).
2)Do you have any "jobs" that the kids can do to set up campsite?Or should one of us just take the kids swimming while the other one sets up.
3)Any ideas or words of encouragement?
Thanks!
