Kids Crafts For Your Next Camping Trip

Sharing is caring!

I grew up going camping every summer with my family (although it was a little different in a motor home) and to this day some of my favorite childhood memories are from those trips. Since camping has been top of mind this week I thought I would share some fun crafts for your next camping trip! All of these crafts use elements found in nature or use items that you would already be bringing with you and will create memorable moments with your kids.

Crafts For Your Next Camping Trip
Camping Crafts for Kids! Tons of great ideas for easy crafts to do on your next camping trip!

Tons of Craft Ideas For Camping

Have your kids make a “Camp Box” before you head camping or while you are there. This will be a great place to store little treasures such as pinecones, rocks, sticks etc. and you won’t get in trouble for accidentally throwing them out! (Via Disney Blog)

Aren’t these chairs the cutest? These easy Camp Chairs are the perfect way for your kiddos to feel independent and like a ‘big kid’. We got my daughter her own chair for our family room and she LOVES it so I think these would be a hit! (Via Simple Simon and Co)

These little Pinecone Owls are a fun craft while sitting around the picnic table. Simply find some pinecones out in the woods (if that works with your location) and add a few acorns and feathers and paint. (via Crafts by Amanda)

Make a DIY Bug Catcher with a left over juice bottle. (Via Disney Blog)

I know we always bring a huge amount of paper plates with us on our camping trip so you wouldn’t be packing anything extra for this craft besides some glue and scissors. Use your paper plates to make cute animals. They can also be turned into masks just by cutting two eye holes. (Via DLTK)

Going on a camping trip with multiple families means multiple tents and that can be confusing to young kids. Try making these personalized signs out of a left over tin cans and prop them on a stick in front of your tent so everyone knows which tent is theirs! (Via Crafts by Amanda)

Every camp ground has rocks! Collect a few flat rocks let your kids personalize them with paint. (Via Aesthetic Outburst)

For the girly girls in the bunch, make a nature bracelet using duct tape, ribbon and flowers. (Via Mustard Seeds)

Nature Pals from sticks, bark and rocks! (Via FamilyFun)

If you have kids that like to label things and stay organized here is a free printable to help you keep your gear in check! (Via Sweet Mady)

So what about you, do you have camping plans this summer? What are some of your favorite things to do?

It always amazes me how just a few small changes c It always amazes me how just a few small changes can make such a difference! And those few differences can really take a room to a whole new level! You can swipe to see the differences in this pic! Same room, same angle, I used left over paint to change the wood accent wall to black, switched out the throw pillows and chandelier to ones I already had, and added hung a picture from the other side of the room. That’s it! And it’s a whole new look! I’m sharing more details on the blog today with lots of links!

I swear, the second I actually fold all the laundr I swear, the second I actually fold all the laundry and put it away, the laundry bins are full again... one thing I NEVER feel caught up on! Do you fold each load as you do it? Or wait until you have a huge pile? I probably fold 1-2 times a week, I always put on a show and try and use it as some quiet time... #thisis30s

One of my favorite traditions we started since we’ve “been home”, is our weekly family movie night EVERY Friday night! We order take out from a local restaurant (we rotate who gets to pick the place) and then we cuddle up and watch a new movie none of us have seen. We’ve had to start going back to the archives a bit recently ha! But the kids love it and so do we. Having this space all finished so we can all lounge in here comfortably has been so nice. We haven’t picked a movie for tonight yet, last week we watched Beethoven circa 1992 and our kids were cracking up the whole time!

I finally found THE piece for above the mantel! We I finally found THE piece for above the mantel! We officially took down the TV and moved it to the wall. I was looking for either a modern artwork piece or mirror and I am in love with this one! It’s the perfect mix of simple and modern with subtle mid-century modern lines. I’m sharing more angles on the blog today with links.

Happy Friday! A few common questions that have com Happy Friday! A few common questions that have come up about the staircase gallery wall this week... 1) the wall color is called Rebel by Kilz 2) the print size is 16 x 20 and 3) I have two full blog posts dedicated to how I picked the prints and links to the frames and also another one on building out the wall. Hope that helps!

Would you believe this brick wall is just removabl Would you believe this brick wall is just removable wallpaper?! It’s simple things like this that can completely change a space. It’s great for rentals or apartments because it won’t ruin the walls when you take it down! I’ve used it in a few rooms of our home and I’m a big fan.

I’ve got bathrooms on my mind! Here is our kids’ shared jack-n-Jill bathroom that I did a few years back. I still love the design and so glad I went with a pop of blue in here! I’ve started the planning process for our other upstairs bathroom and went searching for tile today (see stories)! I am getting so excited for this project, I’ve been gathering tons of inspiration photos and I’ll share them this week!
