Staycation Idea: Indoor Camp Out

Many families are looking for ways to enjoy Spring Break or a summer vacation without breaking the bank. Not to mention, when kids are out of school they want constant entertainment.  Set this up for the family one evening and let the kiddos enjoy it the next day as well.

Staycations are a great way to save money and enjoy quality time together. If the weather is still a bit chilly, have an Indoor Camp Out. Avoid the camping fee, drive and mosquitoes and camp out inside your own home.
