18 of the Best Camping Gift Ideas for Kids

At the bottom of the list, there is a section of fun things for kids to take camping. The more fun you can make it the more they will want to go camping. 

Also, I included several camping books. I love the idea of having a kid keep a camping journal of where they camp, what they do, what the find. This is a great time to do nature walks and record findings.
