Indoor Camping
Time:60+ min
Difficulty:Medium
Stop, don’t turn that thermostat up! We know it’s getting colder, so why not enjoy a week of chilly adventures and try some indoor camping?
About the game:
Objective: When it’s cold, rather than turn up the heat, try out some tried-and-true camping tricks… inside! Build yourself a fun indoor tent, pretend you’re an arctic explorer, and find ways to stay warm even while your thermostat is turned down low!
Players: 1 or more players
Here’s what you need:
- Chairs
- Sheet, tablecloth, or cozy blankets
- Cozy decorations for your indoor tent (ie. Comfy pillows, plushies)
- Flameless candles or a lamp
- 3-4 sticks or paper rolls
- An adult to help
Here’s how you play it:
Step 1:
First, you need a tent. If you don’t have your own camping tent, no problem! You only need 3 chairs, a big sheet (for a tent cover) and some books.
Place the chairs facing out, hang the sheet over the top of the chairs, and put the books on top to hold the sheet on the chairs. For extra warmth, build the tent in a sunny spot (like near a window).
Step 2:
Decorate the inside of your tent! Add pillows, some plushies, or you decide!
Step 3:
Make yourself somewhere comfy to sleep on. Bring a sleeping bag or blanket into the tent – the more layers between you and the cold floor, the better!
Step 4:
Want to enjoy a safe indoor campfire? You’ll need a flashlight or flameless candle and some sticks or paper rolls.
In front of your tent, set up the flashlight or flameless candle and put the sticks or paper rolls around it to create your fire. So cozy!
Step 5:
Your tent is done! Throw on a comfy sweater, or a toasty toque, and invite some friends over for hot cocoa and a fun camping adventure!
I definitely will
I’m still playing
This is something I’ve done a lot before myself. It’s a fun thing to do in my opinion.
Sounds fun
That looks fun
I did not do it yet
It does sound pretty fun
I’ll do it today
This is kinda like making a den! I have one up 24/7, it helps me feel more connected to my theriotype (I’m a therian) :} It’s really fun, as well as being cozy and homey. It’s awsome.
Can’t wait to try this out one night!
