Our family has started camping in the backyard as a way to get ready for "REAL" camping. After having NOT done any camping for about well, ... 20 years or so... I find that I'm forgetting a LOT.
The first weekend of backyard camping with my husband and two young boys (ages 2 and 5) found that we needed a bigger tent. I love my 3 person, 4 season backpacking tent, but we were sardines... so we went to Sears and got the Coleman Oasis 6 person tent. It is a VERY basic tent, but we love it. It provides extra space and is a cheap way to get into camping ($90 instead of the $204 tent we originally chose).
So, we have our tent, air mattresses (and pumps), coolers, storage tent, and a few other hiking type supplies. What items do you consider to be must-haves when you go camping?
