Camping Indoors with Preschoolers

So, I really like the idea of camping...I just haven't convinced myself I have enough strength and patience to attempt it with three little ones.  I know many are much braver, but I'm just not there yet!  Fortunately, my mom humored me and let me borrow her tent to set up in the basement.  There is just something novel about setting up a tent indoors.  Plus, we can "camp" without any bugs, heat, or allergies ruining our fun!

Even though it isn't the real thing, it's a good introduction for my little ones.  I hope it will be a fun memory for them!
