You can’t forget to sing some songs by the campfire or at least try to sing a few. Here’s a few I remember singing and the lyrics are fairly simple for kids to sing along and learn.

Duke of York

The grand old duke of York
He had ten thousand men
He marched them up to the top of the hill
And he marched them down again
And when they were up they were up
And when they were down they were down
And when they were only half-way up
They were neither up nor down!

This Land is Your Land

    I think that camping is really good for young children. It’s so rare that people are away from their tv’s and other electronics. Kids get lasting memories from just talking to their parents around a campfire. Thank you for this series.
