Camping is such a great activity to get kids out and into nature. Pitching tents, making campfires, and singing camp songs are so much fun! We have lots of fun activities planned for this theme, so let’s get started!
NOTE: Some of the activity links go straight to a pin on Pinterest instead of a blog page. Read the description of the pin for the activity instructions. If you are new here, make sure to check out the Themed Curriculum page for more details about how to use this curriculum. Looking for a different theme? Check out all of our themes here.
