What are some fun activities to do while camping?

besides the obvious, camp fires, ghost stories, etc…
What was the one thing you did that you really enjoyed while camping?

Please nothing sexual either.
I want some good idea’s & activities for adults and kids.
I’m going camping in less than 2 weeks
Thanks in advance

During the summer of 05, I went camping with my sister, her husband, his family, a few family friends, and my nephews. My favorite memory from that was playing this one board game on the picnic table. :) Definitely bring a few board games, as long as card games (like Uno, regular cards, Phase Ten, etc). Be careful that you don’t loose any of the pieces to the games. Actually, it’d be best if you brought a few board games that either don’t have many pieces, or have large enough ones that won’t get lost.

Bring a slip-and-slide! And, if no one has one, then bring a few tarps! Make sure you put stakes through the wholes on the tarps to keep them on the ground, and also make sure they overlap one another.

During that trip I mentioned up there, my sister and nephews brought their rollerskates/rollerblades. If the road that goes through the campsite is pavement, then skate there! However, make sure you’re wearing a helmet and other protective gear. Don’t let a younger kid go by themselves; if you don’t rollerskate, then you can follow the kid, and just make sure there are no cars coming.

My brother-in-law’s family loves playing Bocce Ball; whatever that is lol. I think it’s like crochet (which is another good thing to bring)?

Play charades!

Go swimming or for a walk.

Depending on how many people are going, and what ages they are, a fun thing to do would be to have the people split up into three or four groups; each group has about an hour or so to come up with a funny skit! Then, you can put on a skit night show :)

Bring a soccer ball and either play soccer (if there is a place where there’s flat ground, with just grass; or, if your near a beach, go there!) or kickball.

I can’t think of any more right now! Hope I helped :)
