When camping alone how would you protect your belongings/self?

The Gay Ar


1) I am going to a campground alone, not wilderness camping, so I feel that a gun of any sort would be a bit much. For those who have camped alone do you bring anything for protection?

2) When you need to leave your tent site for any reason for a period of time do you just trust the other campers? I know that I will put my iPod, phone and such away but what of the tent, chair, sleeping bag?

Thanks in advance.



Answer
1. It is very unlikely for you to be harmed in a campground because their will be many people around including employees of the campground.
2. I always put anything valuable in my car after getting my bikes stolen when I was a kid but for the tent, chairs, etc I have never had a problem with people messing with them.

How to stop toddler getting cold in bed?

My two year old sleeps in a single bed, but up until now has still been in his Grobag. He's tall for his age and is therefore getting too big for the sleeping bag, but when I try him under the duvet no matter how well I tuck it in he ends up uncovered and cold in the night.

Has anyone ideas on how to address this? I've seen duvet clips in the shops, but am not sure I like the idea of pinning him under the covers like that.



Answer
Will he wear fleece footie pajamas? I know some kids won't, but my son loves them and they keep him warm throughout the night because he's zipped up from head to toe in a little cocoon...

If he won't, you can always try to get a bigger sleeping bag... my son has a toddler size Transformers one from Target that he snuggles with in the play tent in his room; it was pretty cheap but very warm.

Personally, I wouldn't try a heater just because my toddler is always curious and the orange glow from the heater would just be asking for my son to reach out and grab it, obviously leading to far worse problems. Maybe if you can get one that can go on a shelf or somewhere out of reach, that could work for you. I personally wouldn't risk having one of those around my child while he is unsupervised. lol
Good luck =)
