It’s that time of year again. Everyone is on vacation and you are totally lost in where to take your family this year. You want to do something really special and totally different from the norm. But what? Why not consider camping combined with skiing. It will get the family bonding and chatting and laughing again in no time.

Planning a trip such as this is really exciting for everyone, especially if you give them tasks to perform to help make it a special vacation. Sit and plan together from the start and this togetherness, will carry through on your trip as well. Don’t worry if the boys want to take their men’s sport watch along, they will need it to guide you along the way and to keep track of time. And let the girls take their digital book reader as well, you never know if might rain and they will have something to do that day.

Our children spend way to much time in their rooms, playing computer games or surfing the internet and not to mention the thousands of text messages that their poor thumbs have to produce. It is partly our fault because after all why worry about there whereabouts if you could keep them safely in their rooms?

We the parents are to blame in some areas because it is easier to keep an eye on a child if he is up in his room, than not knowing where he is or what he is up to if not at home. So we subconsciously provide them with entertainment that will keep them in doors. There is nothing inherently wrong with it, it just keeps the child away from nature and physical exercise.

If you have snow nearby, you could combine a camping with skiing and have double the fun. Take your alpine skiing equipment along and show off in front of them a bit, or even better, provide them with laughter as you come tumbling down a slope, looking rather odd.

Sunshine also plays a pivotal role in our well being. When exposed to it for a period of time our skin absorbs the UV rays and in turn we convert this into Vitamin D. The function of vitamin D in our bodies, is to help us absorb calcium and maintain normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus. This is good for a bones and especially in youngsters.

That is why camping or even skiing is a really good sport and activity to do and has the added bonus to binding a family closer together was well.
