The almost backyard camp-out

Last night we surprised the kids with an almost backyard camp-out.



We started our camp-out adventure with a bug hunt, since our backyard is only dirt and rocks we had to improvise. I bought toy bugs, lizards, and snakes from the dollar store and threw them all over the back yard for the kids to find.



Next up, the kids went "fishing" at our pond. We once again had to improvise this time using poster board, paper fish with paperclips attached, and magnetic fishing poles. The kids had a lot of fun with this and played for a long time.







We also had fun with bubbles and glowstick bracelets. (It was starting to get dark so the pictures were too blurry.)



We finished the night with the kids sleeping in the tent in the living room!
