From fishing, playing cards, games to doing crafts. The children enjoy doing crafts and this keeps them busy for hours. I have enjoyed scrapbooking, crocheting/knitting around the campfire. We enjoy taking evening walks around the campgrounds. I always saw campers playing the bean bag game or the other game mentioned and did not know what they were called, now I know.

Never done that. Been out on a boat fishing before :] Cornhole is a mid-western thing maybe even just the Cincinnati area. Kayaking sounds fun Jim. Never done that.

I find it amazing how we never seem to run out of things to do. No tv, no video games...and yet there's still not enough hours in the day to do all we want while camping. Cornhole??? never heard of it. Kayaking is my all-time favorite camping activity. I find it amazing how we never seem to run out of things to do.

We toss the footy, play card games, swim and hike but nothing can beat the raw enjoyment of cooking off the campfire flame. I' recently getting into fishing, and have been learning all that i can off www.knowyourfishing.info its a great place to learn the tricks and tips of how to catch a fish. I'm honing my skills for our next camping trip were i hope to catch, scale, gut and cook a fish. I can't wait to try it.

Using a GPS or even just a compass, practice running a course using points, elevation and terrain identification techniques. You'll never know when you might need to use them! Do some star gazing. Night time in the wilderness is a great time and place to view constellations, stars and planets. After 26 years in the Army, I can honestly say we never ran out of things to do!

It's a fun activity you can do with the whole family and the great thing about it is the price of gold is now almost $1000 an ounce. After that my next favorite thing to do is jump in a river and go swimming to cool off after a hard day of rock hounding. I love to go goldpanning while camping.
