3 Reasons to Camp

By Virginia Laird

There is nothing quite as wonderful as camping. Getting away from the hustle and bustle of life in the fast lane is one of the best perks for camping. Although your children may struggle to leave the television and devices behind, this can be a great way to reconnect with one another. Planning nature scavenger hunts can be fun for everyone. There is something calming about spending time in nature that can help reduce stress and anxiety. Still, there are plenty of other benefits of camping. A few reasons you need to plan a camping trip in your near future include:

  • Fresh air is great for the immune system 
  • Camping can be good for your sleep
  • It promotes an active lifestyle

Fresh Air Is Great for the Immune System

According to research, fresh air can be great for your immune system. While you are surrounded by nature, you are likely getting to breathe more pure oxygen. This allows the body to absorb it without pollution. Providing this natural boost to your immune system can help increase your energy, fight off illnesses, and much more. 

Camping Can Be Good for Your Sleep

For those who struggle to get enough good rest, camping can be good for your sleep. Experts insist that the fresh air and cooler sleeping temperatures can help put you in a deeper sleep. With nature's music helping to relax your mind, you may find that sleeping on your camping trip is a pleasant and refreshing experience. Pack an air mattress if you are one who needs more than a simple sleeping bag, but get ready to wake up feeling refreshed and ready to go.

It Promotes an Active Lifestyle

You may find that as you are at home, everyone is more sedentary than you would like. Camping can be the opposite. Eliminating television and other devices can help encourage your family to get up and get moving. While you are camping you will likely be surrounded by nature trails to enjoy. Being outdoors can encourage a more active lifestyle for you children. As you prepare for your camping trip, pack a soccer ball and other outdoor activities so that your children can learn to enjoy time outside. 

Although you may not want to camp in this summer heat, it is time to begin planning for fall. This is a great time to begin planning your first fall outing of the year. Camping is one that everyone can enjoy. Start planning your camping trip today!
