Make the best of your time while camping

To make your night camping more enjoyable, here are some cool camping ideas you can prepare before your trip.

Pack a portable lantern: Bring a flashlight or camping lantern, and headlamp with you to keep you from stumbling around in the dark. You'll also be able to have some much-needed light for your campsite activities.

Pack comfy shoes: It's a long day of hiking and you need to be comfortable. Pack your favorite sandals that are easy to slip on and off.

Prepare in advance: If you're heading out with the family, pack enough food and supplies for everybody in your family. Include a gallon jug of water to keep you hydrated in your adventure.

Pack some treats: It's nice to have something on hand that you can enjoy when you're out hiking. Granola bars, trail mix, or any other snack will provide an energy boost.

• Be prepared and bring a first aid kit, just in case something happens while you're out there in the wilderness.
• Bring any essentials like supplements, antibiotic ointment, dental floss, cotton balls (great fire starters), and extra toilet paper so that you are well-prepared for the things you need the most out of nature.
• And don't forget about bringing some insect repellent for those pesky mosquitoes!
• Bring extra camping clothes with you- it's always better to be prepared for the worst-case scenario.
• Bring zip ties to secure the corners of tarps to poles for easy setup.

Some underrated fun camping hacks

Camping hacks are a great way to make your camping experience more enjoyable. Here are some of the best and most underrated camping tips:

• Hiking poles are a great tool for keeping your balance while hiking in rough terrain.
• A small solar panel or power station can power your phone and other small electronics during an extended camping trip.
• Use a compact carabiner to hang your food bags from trees or branches so that they don't get eaten by animals.
• Keep dry clothes and dry socks in your sleeping bag, and inside your tent
• Bring an inflatable mattress or yoga mat with you so that it is more comfortable than sleeping on the ground.
• Mosquitoes are attracted to carbon dioxide, so keep them away by adding bundles of sage to the campfire to keep them away or slather lavender essential oil on your skin.

Camping hacks that help with cooking

There are many things to think about when camping, but one thing that often gets overlooked is food.

The best food to bring on a camping trip is a simple breakfast like oatmeal and granola with berries, black coffee, tea, and fruits like bananas or apples.  When you want a quick cup of coffee, pop some ground into a coffee filter, tie it with dental floss and add to a cup of hot water. 

Camping can get hot and cold, so it's important to have something that can transition well while you're out. It's also useful to have a meal that's packed with protein to sustain your energy throughout the day.

Camping food is traditionally considered to be limited to freeze-dried food, canned food, and dried food. But there are plenty of ways to eat well in the woods. The best of these are the meals that are made up of ingredients that you pack from home.

My favorite camping hack for meal planning is a homemade breakfast burrito wrapped in foil and cooked over the fire. The convenience of a wrapped breakfast burrito allows for easy transport and no extra dishes for cleanup. Plus, it tastes great!

Here are some fun camping ideas that will make cooking easier:

• Think through what you put on the menu wisely. Not only will this help save time, but it will also decrease your food waste.
• Bring a cooler filled with ice packs so you can store perishables and make sure they stay fresh longer. Don't forget your cooking utensils!
• Put cheese cubes on top of sliced bread or buns before putting them in a sealed baggie so they won't mold over time.

List of camping hacks for tent

Tent camping hacks can be as simple as packing extra camping supplies, or as complicated as building a shelter. Here are some of the best camping hacks that you should try.

• Bring an extra tarp or an old sheet to use for a ground cover, it will keep the ground from getting muddy and wet.
• Try to pick something that you can use as a pillow, even a roll-up blanket will do the trick!
• Bring an empty water jug with you so that you can fill it up with water at campgrounds or streams along the way; this will save you money on buying bottled water and is better for the environment.
