My 3 year old son has just embarked on his first night in the garden, in my old scout tent i used to use 15 years ago!

He was really excited about getting out there, but i envisaged having to keep going out, but he seems to be going to sleep!!

The missus wont go anywhere near the word "Tent" let alone sleep in one, so im trying to get him used to it so we can go camping in the kit car for the weekends.

Anyway, completely random, but nice to share something off-topic!

3 years old and he's sleeping in a tent on his own?

did you tell him about the pond snakes and bush bears?

We used to have a playhouse at the end of the garden that we built from two garden sheds.

My sister and i decided we would stay the night in there. 11pm and we were knocking on the door 'cos we wanted to come in

I was 7 btw

He's in now for the second time! I think he's too excited about it all to be able to sleep!

He will either be in his own bed in a minute or ill have to sleep outside with him!
- which i was going to do anyway, but just not this early!!
Looking forward to the bacon sandwiches cooked on the trangia tomorrow morning!
