Parents who never camped as children may wish to try it but feel a little reluctant to undertake a new activity that seems so demanding. That's where Camping With Kids comes in. I reached out to more than 100 individuals, parents and kids of all ages, to learn how they camped and what they thought about it. Based on their responses, this book will take you, step by step, through the decisions you need to make in order to create your own extraordinary camping experience and cherished family memories.

As you read through the sections, you will notice some recurring features. "Expert's Advice" is an especially helpful hint or bit of wisdom from one of the experts who was interviewed for the book. "Helping Hands" indicates an activity in which your children can be involved. When you need to make a decision, a "Quick Quiz" will briefly lay out the alternatives. "Checklist" provides organizing tools to keep you on track. "Imaginary Camping" encourages you to think yourself into a camping situation. Also look for other sidebars throughout the book that highlight important ideas or information.
