Hi I am looking for some free printables for my sons 9th birthday on sat. He wanted a outdoor adventure/campout party, problem is they have NO party supplies for this theme, so we have to make or print them all. Looking for bears, tents, anything outdoorsy or campout related. Any help or direction would be great. Thanks a bunch from a momma and her cubs.


Answer
Here is a few links that have some good campout theme printouts, crafts, food ideas, games, etc. for kids parties

Hope this helps! Good luck to you and Happy Birthday to your son!

I am looking for fun activities to do with my 4 year old when we are staying in for the day?

We love to cook and do crafts together but could use some new ideas to mix things up!!!


Answer
My niece and nephews love "Theme Day". When I know that I will have them all day, and we have to stay indoors (which is already a challenge), I pick a theme ahead of time and use it all day. For example, we had a camping/picnic day.

We started the day of reading books and coloring Yogi Bear. Then, we fixed lunch, and I let them help (as much as a 3 and 6 yr old can). They especially loved making homemade trail mix and sugar cookies in the shape of bears (Yogi). Then, we made a tent out of a whole lot of crap (hey loved it) and we ate in the living room...a big no no at my house...lol. After we finished eating, we watched "Open Season". I taught a little bit about camping safety. Which bugs and plants are ok and bad...etc (not that they will remember any of it), but they had fun looking at the pictures in the encyclopedia and online.

Anyways, the sky is the limit...have fun with it. Kids have such great imaginations and love to use them.
