Kampgrounds of America Offers Tips on Camping with Kids

Where I live, everyone camps. We on the other hand do the indoor type camping, such as right in my family room. We put up a tent and let the kids, have the experience without the heat, bugs and sleeping on the ground thing which, I'm sorry, I just can't do if I want to walk the next day.

While it looks fun and I enjoy looking at all the pictures of my friends and their kids hanging around a campfire, I don't see this happening anytime soon for me.

But, since I know loads of people who partake and I am sure some of my readers love it, I believe in safety first, fun second. So, thanks to Kampgrounds of America, here are some safety tips as YOU enjoy the great outdoors.
