A camping-themed journal to capture memories, inspire activities, and to stimulate creativity out in the wilderness or in your own backyard!
Write, draw, think, listen, and dare with the Adventure Journal: 50 Things to Try When Camping. Begin on any page and do as many activities as you can fit in a day, in any order you'd like. Activities are colour coded to help you choose where to start: try pink for Explore, yellow for Dare, blue for Make, and more! Map out your campsite; draw your own wilderness monster; learn the difference between herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores; then tackle your daily dare: tonight, create your own spooky camp story.
An extra page in the back of the book is a great place to jot down notes, pictures, and doodles from your adventures. There's a pocket inside the back cover to hold a pencil or special things, and an elastic band to keep the journal closed.
"Got a kid for whom the whole concept of camping is a hard sell This activity book might soften them up. While it tosses in a few pages' worth of helpful campsite how-tos--how to pick the right spot for setting up your tent, how to build a campfire, and how to make a s'more--its real focus is on activities that crafty types can engage in to make the whole experience feel like a Wilderness Maker Club outing. Even the most outdoors-averse will revel in designing a campsite flag, creating a map of the surrounding area, and learning how to flash out a message in Morse code."--Lela Nargi "Sierra" (4/3/2021 12:00:00 AM)
