HOW TO CAMP WITH KIDS | FAMILY CAMPING TIPS | CAMPING HACKS 

Another TIP: take a camping toilet if you have room to take one, or just a collapsible bucket that the family know is just for toilet use only! It's great for middle of the night, especially with kids. And some kids, when they need to go, they need to go now! And toilets can be far away at some sites. Also: Wet Wipes are your best friend whilst camping!!! All sorts of uses.You can get eco friendly ones too.

Tried camping once with 4 kids and oh my we have alot to learn

Great camping tips! I precook some meals and freeze them, pressed flat, in ziplock bags. They help keep the rest of the food cold and save me the stress of cooking all the time while away. I also have a small cheap plastic shower caddy with suction cups that fits all the shower things in, no more fishing around on the floor for the soap!

I am no newbie, just excited about the first camping trip of the year this weekend so I'm binge watching camp videos lol. You put together a wonderful list for new campers! I COMPLETELY understand about the kids bringing along their devices!! Us as parents have to kind of "meet in the middle" by not only limiting screen time, but also understanding that these days technology is such a huge part of this new generation's lives! So no judgement here! Also, this Saturday is calling for rain on our trip, so I'm sure that the phones and tablet will save my daughter and neice from hours of boredom. I am bringing games, cards, coloring books, etc. but no harm in watching a couple movies as well!😉💓

One thing iv seen others use and it’s such a great idea is a water tank that fits on the roof rack of the car. Heated by the sun or can be wired into the car so as your driving it heats up. Hot shower right by your tent or inside if you have an awning with a box room in it 👌🏻

thank you so much for your transparency im having my first camping experience and anxiety through the roof

Thank you for this. Been camping by myself since a child. But now that I'm married with a two year old it helps to know some tips for family camping!

Thank you for the baby bath idea!! I too have an aiden who is currently 4 and HATES the shower and I’ve been wondering how we are going to tackle this next trip. You’re a life saver!

Please do the set up please 💖💖💖 so glad I found this.

Started camping in 2021 and we love it .. we're limited for space in the car and enjoying your blogs and tips thank you.

Thank you for this video! We are a family of 5 and going camping for the first time next weekend for my sons bday! I've been binge watching camping videos. This one was very helpful!

Just discovered your channel! Taking my 3year old on our first camping trip next week! Would love you to film a packing/set up video! I’m also 6months preggers so debating if I’ve just lost the plot a little 🙈

I've been taking my 4 boys camping since they were babies. They are teenagers now and still love our camping trips! Great video I enjoyed watching. 😊

Love the slow cooker tip! were going camping for our second time in a couple of weeks. With four children and a dog!!!! So iv been searching you tube for helpful tips and tricks to help make our experience easier, better and more comfortable! and this is one of the best tips i come across, that i will definitely be using. So, THANK YOU :-)

I camp alone in a 6 metre Bell tent currently and the best piece of camping gear I have had for about ten years is a 3 way dometic fridge which I use on gas.

These are such great tips!! Now I'm extra looking forward to camping this weekend with our baby and toddler. Thanks!!

I know this video was a while ago but my favourite go-to is (and I am in Canada do I don't know what stores are different in the UK) the little stationary boxes from the Dollartree with all the compartments. I put my kids' names on them and fill with snacks like goldshish crackers, mini oreos, m&ms, Cheerios, Mini marshmellos etc. Then they are each in charge of their own snacks. It works for any kind of trip. I have used it on the airplane and on road trips.

Thanks we put the plastic storage boxes aground kids Ike big square to keep them safer . Take a bucket to go potty in at night! Zip ties will lock your tent zipper

Hi great video. So glad I found your channel.. I'm looking at taking my 3year old daughter camping for the first time this year. Thanks for all the great ideas 💡👍

Great video, thanks for this. We plan our first family camping trip this half term. 😁

We use solar lights around the ground from dollar tree to light up certain areas

Taking my son for his first camping trip next year and this was really helpful, thanks

Rule number 1 start them young so when you have a second theyll know more and can help more so its not a handful watching both kids and repeat for all the kids. Also bring a bucket and garbage bags with kitty litter or sawdust to help absorb. Bring a portable shower that heats in the sun.last bring a tarp for privacy and if you want another for shade

I always take my slow cooker so you can have a nice warm meal and you've done the work before hand. I spend ages on line looking at campsites before we book one, does it allow dogs, is there a playground, do the showers and toilets look clean. The list of particulars seems to get more each year 😂 far from the days where my husband and I would just take a tent and any camp field would do. We don't take a gazebo but if you do make sure the campsite allows them cuz some dont. Liked this video it was really interesting x

Thanks for the tips. I especially love the box as a bath idea. Can’t wait to get camping again went for first time as a family last yr.

Kiddos are very cute

Awesome tips. I purchased a portable battery generator. It will run all your power needs even the portable fridge. You can also hook up solar to them.

I ama kid and me and my family are camping soon!!! Im gonna be alone and my brothers are partners with my parents

Taking our two young boys 1 and 5 camping, I've seen your videos o love your stove I have been trying to find one like that.

I'm so glad I found your video! We're taking our 4 young kids camping THIS week!! New sub :D

anyone have tips on what to do with a 2 year old who will not sit still or behave, while camping? we haven’t been yet.. because he’s such a handful. he doesn’t listen to “no” or “stop” either for the most part 🙃 I suggested a cage to my partner but apparently that’s frowned upon 😅

This is so helpful, thanks :)

Hey great video thank you. Just wondering what type of tent you have please? Thank you

How do you pack everything? What car do you have?

Really useful info, we are just starting out and have a four year old. Got the gear but no idea

I'm looking at buying a setup for camping as kids are now 4 and 2 and will hopefully enjoy it. But I'm not sure how electric hookups work. Do you need special cables or are they provided?

Hey Kate! Adore your camping videos! I went to 3 Cliffs Bay with my 6 month old after watching your videos 💕 i was just wondering where you got your flag for your tent, the one with gin on it haha! Would love to get one for our set up 🥰 Can’t wait to see more camping vids especially a set up 😍🏕 ✨

We don’t do electric- so my tip is a site with a freezer to freeze ice blocks!

Thank you 😊

Oh so brave to go with the baby! Great video! I'd love to take my little ones camping one day! Still super nervous to take my 2year old he he

One rip i heard is to bring toilet paper just in case there isnt any at the restrooms

U definitely love what U do :)

Very nice ❤️

SO NICE................................................................. LOVELY.............

Thanks for this, was so excited to see this pop up on my feed! Watched your last camping trip video. How do you like your bell tent? We used to go camping 15 years ago, then got a trailer tent, then back to tenting, then got a caravan and now back to tenting again! Just got an air tent after buying a poled tent which didn't stand up to weather In our back garden a couple weeks ago! Caravanning has plus points, I showered in ours, big advamtage for me! There's the toilet, big kitchen area, no need to worry about rain, but it just doesn't feel like camping. We would sit n watch tv instead of sitting outside in the dark, I miss that. So looking forward to getting bk to it! I've just bought an Andes bag for all of our kitchen things, outwell sell them but Andes were half the price and is basically the same. Just grab and go! Also bought the vango cuisine unit which I'm looking forward to using. Love the idea of taking slow cooker 😋 TIP: Just got the king size coleman comfort air bed, sooooo comfy! But a tip I would give anyone not used to camping is to make sure to put insulation UNDER the air bed...or the bed will feel damp in the morning, like you peed! A sleeping mat or foil backed picnic blanket or fleece blankets would be good. Going to do a trial packing up the car...got a feeling it's not all going to fit!

What I do with the shower is buy a portable self heating shower 🚿 and tarp.

Would you recommend the bell tents? I have 5month twin girls and a 5 year old boy and want to start camping but I'm torn between the 5 metre bell tent and a berghaus air tent just can't make decision? yours looks great cheers

Your video is very nice !

Iv just come across your channel and been watching some of your camping videos. Noticed you have a Marnie my little girl is also Marnie she is 10 now xx

With you on camp fires and a clean toilet/shower block but would prefer a smaller campsite with few pitches, spaced far apart even if it meant no electric hookup. We have a 60w solar panel for charging gadgets but can manage with ice blocks in the cool box. Would rather a campsite without being next to loads of other campers and being subjected to their questionable taste in music, cigarette smoke and bad language into the early hours. Would rather go to a quiet campsite maybe joined with family and friends and their kids too rather than leaving my kids to play with some of the feral kids and parents we've been unable to escape from during our stay in the past. Not sure what it is but our kids always seen to attract the naughty kids who seem to latch on to our kids. Likewise we are not interested in making friends ourselves either and would rather be left in peace, or just with the people we went with. Not sure slow cookers and air fryers etc is proper camping, half the fun is improvisation when cooking. Not fussed about having a shop on site as that restricts the type of campsite you get and you then miss out on some real gems that just have the basics for a fraction of the price of the big sites.

Brilliant 😊👍

First comment love your vlogs

How do you deal with the youngest kids? Will they sleep anywhere or do you manage to squeeze some sort of travel cot up? Thinking of camping (family of 6 with our youngest kids being 1 and 3 still in cots!)

Are you doing anymore camping videos?

We are going on our 1st ever one next week...im.not worried at all about the kids its just the hubby😂😂...i wonder what you pack clothes wise on these camping trips...unsure what to bring as space is limited we just have a car... were just going for 3 nights to start off with...

Were do u find camp sites ?? We have a oasis 8 so tents big and we have no idea were to look

A campsite without fires is not a campsite at all

Hi, is it a 4m or 5m bell tent you have?

Electric hook up?? I thought this was for real camping?! 😉

You are so beautiful. You look like Elizabeth Banks.

Omg I just wanna read the comments but they’re too long 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

You’re glamping, not camping. Electricity? Showers? Rough it for a few days. It won’t hurt you.
