We took the kids camping for the night (in a tent!) a couple weeks ago. Bentley was QUITE reluctant about the whole idea, and we only lured him into compliance by offering big juicy steaks. Viva and Jake were on board from the get go.
As I finished putting up the tent Bentley told me he was quite surprised at how big the tent was - so maybe part of his reluctance was from some odd idea of being stuck in his tiny play tent with the other 4 of us all night?! :-) We took a walk to the water, read some books, played some ball, cooked some food on a fire... and survived a night of sprinkles without getting wet. It was good fun, and the children have agreed to sign on for another trip - so it must have been a winning experience, right?
