I am sure you can figure out the rest. The tent is very well put together and lots of neat items and designs added.

Beautiful tent with every ammenity you could want. My buddies named it the Taj Mahal. Be sure to have at least two able-bodied adults to put the tent up. Great buy for the money. We were even able to get it back into the carrying case for easy transport after breaking camp.

As airplane fares and hotels become more and more expensive, many families are turning to camping for their vacations and short jaunts away from home and the crazy demands of modern living. Yet, while camping can be fun for the whole family and indeed children of all ages should participate, there are some guidelines to keep in mind when the family camps together.

1. When choosing a campsite, choose one far away from the temptations of water. It is never advisable to camp on the beach with children. Campgrounds with swimming pools, man-made lakes and bodies of water should be should be selected for areas that are sufficiently far enough away from the water.

2. Babies should be kept in playpens or some type of safe enclosure. Because children wander, there are so many dangers outside for them to avoid. Also, make sure the fenced-in area is in the shade so the child does not suffer from heat stroke or sunburn.

3. When boiling water on the camp stove or open fire pit, ensure that all children are away from the cooking area. The cooking area must be out-of-bounds for playing and horsing around. Do not leave things dangling from the table or area, which encourages small children to investigate and pull the item down, splashing the boiling pot on themselves.

4. Children should be supervised when chopping wood and using axes, knives or any other dangerous or sharp object. One would assume that older children rather than small children would use these items but still with adult supervision.

5. Children should wear hats to protect their heads from the sun and sun block covered on their whole bodies. Apply the sunscreen before dressing them so that all parts of the body are covered.

6. Adequately dress and monitor smaller children who cannot swat mosquitoes and flies so that they are not bitten needlessly resulting in their skin becoming red and inflamed. The bites will be very painful to their sensitive skin.

7. Explain to children not to eat the plants or berries. Be especially cautious of young children as babies put everything into their mouths. Another reason to keep them safely confined to a playpen.

8. Never leave children by the campfire alone. They should be supervised when roasting marshmallows and hotdogs. In the evening when sitting around the campfire, make them sit back far enough so as not to be hit by flying embers.

9. Carry a first aid and keep it handy.

10. When using kerosene lamps and heaters in tents, make sure they are not just sitting on the floor. They will be easily knocked over burning the child and taking everything up in flames. Also, if a child does not tip them over but merely touches them, they will be very hot on the skin.

11. Because of the campground's informal surroundings, it is very easy for children to forget about cars and other hazards. They must learn to stay off the road and not dash away into the path of a vehicle. Even older children must have boundaries and should be made to stay within a certain area so they do not become lost.

12. Keep the baby's formula well refrigerated if in a trailer but if tent camping, keep it in a cooler on ice. Bring water from home for the baby and smaller children, as it may be more difficult for them to become accustomed to the new water.
