Smores is a tradition when camping. Night time tip... bring glow sticks for all the kids, they love em, and you can easily see your kid at night.

This man has been traumatized by little kids and smore 👀 I'm not judging. I think we're gonna leave the smores for home. We'll have a camp shower but that won't get all of that out of my son's clothes 😰 And the plan was to wear each pair of jeans for two days. That won't work with smores involved...

Biggest tip when camping: Be faster than the slower person…. Sorry baby
