You can opt for the oldest camping practice in history and rough it a little in the great outdoors experiencing nature and sleep under a black sky full of bright stars, awaking to sunshine on the face (or rain if you are unlucky) or in a multi-roomed tent, or something more substantial such as an RV, a pop-up trailer.

This site already gives good advice on camping-gear required such as tents, sleeping bags, cooking, and clothing however this is about destinations. They range in standards for campgrounds with a simple camp site with basic amenities to a 5 star sites with everything from the Jacuzzi, hot showers and heated indoor pool and sauna with TV lounge and gymnasium, and even cable TV along with the electricity points.

Planning camping-trips

The secret to a successful, relaxing, safe and rewarding trip is proper planning. The following basic questions must be asked and answered. If your previous experiences were a camping-trip full of deprivation, hardship, biting bugs and inadequate food, non-existent amenities then the chances are you will alienate you partner and family for any future camping-trips. Not everyone is suited to camping. Not everyone can live without the creature comforts without getting negative and complaining. A negative attitude will bring down everyone, there is nothing worse, so above all be positive. Plan well and get the right gear and everyone will enjoy the experience.

What type of terrain or environment? Wilderness or campground? If you have the family deciding on a campground with adequate facilities is essential. If you are going into the wilderness then special precautions will be required to ensure the safety of everyone. This will also affect the gear requirements and a careful assessment of the abilities of all the party.

What time of the year and weather? How cold and how hot? This affects your gear and clothing choices.

What are your skills and experience?? Don't decide on a trip that is beyond your ability or experience to manage, it is a recipe for disaster. Take your family on camping-trips and vacations
