Looking for something unique to keep yourself and any company with you entertained while on your next camping trip? Sure, there are plenty of activities you can do. But what are the ones most guaranteed to get you guys giggling and having the best time while on your trip? Let’s get into some of the funniest ways to have fun when camping, perfect for families and trips where you want to have a better bonding experience than just relaxing outdoors in the nature around you during your camping getaway.
Silly Stories
Spending time with your imagination, or with young kids that have some great story skills? Try some story games! There are tons of ways to play telling stories in a more funny way, from taking turns with one big story to keeping a theme while making it goofy to having prompts to letting everybody just tell their wackiest imaginative thoughts out loud.
Dance Like Nobody’s Watching
If you have a way to play some music on your phone or on a speaker when you’re out in nature, spend some time in the daylight or at night to dance together or even on your own if you’re on a solo trip. Night is great for having less visibility to help more nervous dancers let loose and have some enjoyment easier. But, dancing is good exercise and helps you let go of stress fast.
Games and Activities
Either in board game or in spoken word form, there are tons of games and activities out there to try out during camping trips on your own or with friends and family. You can find them online or create your own tradition by playing around with games you already like to make something unique. These can be done sitting or getting moving too depending on what you play.
Scavenger Hunts
Want something that gets you moving more? Scavenger hunt! You can hide things around your campsite or on nearby trails with markers and hints to make a fun game. These are particularly fun when adults are able to create the scavenger hunt for kids and watch them try to finish it or vice-versa.
Creative Cooking
Have you ever tried cooking over the fire while you’re out? Maybe mix things up a bit and play some cooking related games where everybody gets to make their own fun dish from items you bring along. You can plan ahead and bring less common ingredients or let people pick their meal before coming too if you already have this idea in mind before leaving.
Laughter is the best medicine for so many ailments of our minds and spirits. Just having fun doesn’t cut it sometimes. Sometimes you just need that one thing to get you laughing until your belly aches and feeling lighter afterwards than you did before you started. So, why not get that feeling during a getaway to spend time in the great outdoors? These ideas are great for all ages and group sizes to have the silliest and laughable fun outside together while camping during the next trip you plan. You could also do some of these indoors too!
