What are your fun family activites while camping?
I thought I would ask this question two fold… What are your family camping traditions? And what activities do you find yourself doing the most with younger children?

Exploring nature... looking for animals, signs of animals, identifying plants & trees, geology(rock formations, sediment layers, rock collecting) and more. A good source for information is to pick up a Boy Scout Handbook (the older the better). The handbook has lots of suggestions for fun things to do while camping.
Here's a website with a complete Boy Scout Handbook you can read from 1911 It's fun to look through it and there is a lot of great information in it.

A night we would play card games or scrabble, yatzee, uno, bingo..etc.
Tell spooky stories around the campfire.
Star gazing
Throwing rocks at cans or skipping stones on a lake or river.
Bubbles are always fun for the kids
