Prepare yourself by reading up on the fauna and flora of the region. Campsites usually have pamphlets on the birds and animals you are likely to spot. Have fun looking for them. Make a game of it. Vie with each other and total up the number of animals each one has seen. Compare the nocturnal fauna to the ones you\u2019ve observed during the day. See that the children don\u2019t get carried away and get too close to the animals. Take care not to agitate the latter.<\/p>\n

When you play games, don\u2019t get so noisy as to disturb the quiet that the animals are used to. Treat yourself to outdoor games. Find a clearing, without obstructions, (you don\u2019t want accidents to spoil your holiday). Play good old tag or run races. Tug-of-war is another great idea.<\/p>\n

The children\u2019s love of going in search of things can be exploited with the game of scavenger hunt. This physical activity is a great way to help the kids get exercise. Instruct them to avoid plants like the sumac, oak and poison ivy, whose prickles are harmful.<\/p>\n

Word games and riddles are fun too while toasting marshmallows and chomping on goodies like hotdogs.<\/p>\n

Teach the children basic astronomy. There\u2019s nothing more awe inspiring than to lie on the grass and gaze at the stars dotting that vast expanse of sky. Point out the planets and constellations you are familiar with. Wish on a shooting star and admire the grandness of the firmament.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t let a sudden downpour dispirit you. Weather is unpredictable in some places more than in others. Take it in your stride and use the rain to your advantage. Take the opportunity of doing what you\u2019ve always wanted to do\u2014play in the rain. However, if there\u2019s thunder and lightning, it\u2019s better to stay indoors.<\/p>\n
