At Camping Critterz, we’re not just another website; we’re your partners in crafting magical moments under the open sky. Our team of seasoned outdoor enthusiasts and experienced parents have collected TONS of resources, tips, and insights specifically designed for families like yours.

We’ve been camping with our son starting out when he was an infant, then a toddler, preschooler and now as a second grader!
We’ve seen it all and are passing our knowledge of camping with babies and kids on to you so you can navigate family camping trips with confidence.

If you’re nervous about camping with kids, you’re not alone. We were nervous the first time we took our little one camping, but babies are very portable and once you get the basics figured out, camping with kids is quite easy!
Check out our articles on how to pack, what to pack and what to do once you’re at the campsite! We’ll teach you A to Z camping!
