Set the mood for a spectacular night of camping with some flashlight fun. Your kids will be entertained all night long with nothing but their imagination and a couple of flashlights. Wait for night to fall and let the magic begin with these simple games that are fun for all ages.
Flashlight tag is a great twist to this time-honored traditional game. Have each player grab a partner and create a secret signal (one short flash followed by two short flashes, ect.) After each pair has made up a code, everyone is given time to scatter about within a designated area. Once the allotted time is up, each pair must tru to find each other using their special signal. The first pair to reunite is the winner.
Fireflies are fun to spot and catch. A flashlight can be used to attract these beautiful creatures. If you are camping in an area with fireflies, have your camper hold a flashlight near the ground and switch it on for one second at a time. Fireflies will draw near and give you a spectacular show.
