• no rain date required: insect lore campfire kids

    My husband is a former Boy Scout and doesn’t exactly have the fondest memories of scouting. It’s mostly due to the fact that every time there was a overnight camping trip, it rained. And we’re not just talking April showers…more like cats and dogs, if his memory serves him correctly. To this day, the mere thought of being outdoors in a tent gives him the willies. And taunt him with a sleeping bag and a lantern? Don’t even go there. For those campers who have never met a roasted marshmallow that they didn’t like, comes an entire line that doesn’t depend on Mother Nature to have a good time. Campfire Kids indoor camping gear contains everything you need to simulate an overnight in the great outdoors. There’s a pretend campfire that illuminates (with the help of AA batteries, of course), a lantern with nighttime animal sounds (complete with the “woo, woo” of an owl) and even a bearskin rug to decorate your tent. (No worries, animal lovers; no furry friends were harmed in the making of this product.) The entire line is enough to make even the most hesitant camper go grab his backpack and set up shop. Hey, if Campfire Kids would have been around when my husband was a boy, maybe this childhood trauma wouldn’t have persisted. Roasted weenie, anyone?…

    In a Nutshell: Make like Davy Crockett and grab your gear. Campfire Kids is a surefire hit for indoor play, no matter the weather.
