If you're looking for a fun adventure in the mid-term break or want to share an experience with your friends from your own homes, why not join us for The Big Camp Out - In!
Have an adventure at home by sleeping in a den indoors or perhaps in a tent in the garden or lounge.
Our Outdoor and Adventurous Team have some great ideas and activities to help you plan the fun. From setting up your tent to that all important midnight feast, we have some great ideas to keep you busy over the holiday.
The challenge is to make sure it's not in a normal bed! Maybe you can build a 'den' kind of tent with a sheet over a table and sleep in your sleeping bag on a sleeping mat.
If you have a tent and a garden, discuss with your parent or guardian whether it's possible to camp outside. Maybe you could ask someone in your household to keep you company or use your tent to make a den inside your house.
You could build a weatherproof shelter or maybe re-purpose a shed. Make a den in your lounge, put a hammock in your bedroom or even build an igloo in the garden! Discuss your ideas with your parents or guardian at an early stage to help with the planning.
Once you have chosen where to sleep, choose some activities to keep you busy during your camp out. We have some suggestions to help get you started. Remember these are just suggestions - you can be creative and come up with your own ideas!:

We have some fun ideas to help keep your tummies full and your fingers out of the sweetie cupboard on your Camp Out-In. Make a Hairy Hotdog with our Cook A Highland Cow (not a real one!!) Activity, then enjoy some Squidgy Bananas, or Armpit Fudge - it really is a lot tastier than it sounds!
Gather your sleeping bag, blanket, teddy, food supplies and set up camp!
Share your fun times with your family and friends online by taking photos, video clips, screen grabs or writing an account of your Big Camp Out-In!
