Camping trips are a summer staple. Fortunately, you don\u2019t have to drive hours into the mountains to find the perfect campsite. Your backyard is right there waiting for you! Here are a few tips to help your family say farewell to summer with a perfect backyard camping trip.<\/p>\n<h2>Pack For an Authentic Experience<\/h2>\n<p>Your back door is literally a few yards away, which can be great in the event of an emergency. But if the kids are running in and out of the house all night long, they might end up deciding they\u2019d rather be inside playing video games after only an hour. Be sure to pack everything you would need if you were really going into the woods for the night so no one is tempted to go back inside. This means tents, sleeping bags, flashlights, pajamas, books, binoculars, a compass, water bottles, and a cooler of food with snacks and dinner. Treat this like a \u201creal\u201d camping experience right from the beginning!<\/p>\n<h2>Figure Out the Campfire<\/h2>\n<p>Don\u2019t have an in-ground fire pit? No worries! You can still enjoy hot dogs and s\u2019mores with a charcoal grill or a store-bought fire pit. If you have enough room in your backyard, you could even try building a bonfire. Just make sure to check your city ordinances and get any necessary permits first. You can find advice for building the perfect campfire at REI.com\/ learn\/expert-advice\/campfire-basics.html.<\/p>\n<h2>Remember: It&#8217;s Okay to Call It a Night<\/h2>\n<p>For kids, the most exciting part of camping in the backyard is getting to sleep in a tent \u2014 that is, until they actually have to sleep. After stargazing, some kids will want to stay up all night whispering and giggling in the tent, and that\u2019s great! But other kids might decide they\u2019d rather sleep inside, and that\u2019s okay too. Your camping trip isn\u2019t a failure because everyone spent the night in their own beds. It\u2019s not about where everyone sleeps; it\u2019s about how much fun your family had together before bedtime.<\/p>\n<p>The best part of backyard camping? It doesn\u2019t take a lot of planning. Just grab your gear and your family and hike out into the great backyard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summer is drawing to a close, but there\u2019s still time to make some great memories.
