PRESCHOOLERS AND THE GREAT OUTDOORS

Is it time to take the little one camping? This article from Sesame Street provides some good insights on the benefits of taking your preschooler camping. Nature is a good teacher and there are many things that children can learn about and enjoy through a hands-on outdoor experience. With the proper preparation, your child’s first camping adventure will be both fun and educational. Although this can be a very exciting time for many children, it can also be very scary to sleep outside for the first time. That's why the best way to prepare the little one for the great outdoors is to spend some time camping in the backyard first. This will give your child a chance to adjust to the unfamiliarity of the dark and still retain the comforts of home. When it's time for the actual experience, make sure to bring along the child's security blanket or toy. This will help him or her through the trip. This article provides some real insightful advice, so see for yourself what it's all about!
