This post is not for the hikers out there that have been places most of us could never go. This post really is not for the mountain climbers and the extreme outdoors people in the world. It is really for the kids and families out there that have little time or money to head out on big camping excursions. It is also for the beginner to test their camping skills. Yes, we are talking about backyard camping. Backyard camping -well is just that, leaving your home, heading out behind the house about 20 feet and setting up a small camping site.

What a great way to test your camping skills. Another thing is that it can help your kids to get used to being outdoors and not relying on any of the conveniences indoors. Although your neighbors may appreciate it if you would at least use the restroom inside the home rather than outside!
