And they really love sitting by the fire at night and hear stories,then have them make up their own stories. Most like to play ball with a plastic bat and ball. We sometime use a wadded up paper cup for the ball as it does not go very far and will not hurt or anything. We call it cut ball,we learned it at the ball park. A DVD player and a couple of easy and fast board games are fun. You can also do something as simple as using a jar and giving each child so many cloths pens and see who can stand over the jar and drop the most in. It is all so exciting to this age of child that almost anything is fun. Oh and watch out for the coons because they love to get in your trash bag so hang it high. Oh what fun I wish I could go. Have a great time because the memories will last a life time.<br><b>References : </b><br> Kids love to gather wood for the fire and play horseshoes.

Like the scavenger hunt but this is the alphabet scavenger hunt. If you haven't guessed it already, each child or they could work in twos, have they wander off and find something beginning with each letter of the alphabet, the tricker bit is they can only use one thing once. they could use a blade of grass for either b (blade) g (grass or green) but not for both to make it more challenging =) or you could go to a camping stores and most of them sell 'big games' for outdoor use, like big jenga, dominos or chess sets. another option, but tend to have to buy, is bug catchers. get the boys intreseted in insects, or take paper and wax crayons and do tree rubbings enjoy your trip x<br><b>References : </b><br> This is a bit like the previous answer, but what the hell =)
