Just because you need to stay at home, doesn’t mean camping season is cancelled. The backyard is the perfect space to bring the gear out of storage, remind yourself how to pitch a tent, and have a little family (or alone) time outside. And while we’re hopeful that 2020 will deliver plenty of camping opportunities, for now, let’s keep it close to home.

1. Get Ready for Camping Season

You know the motto, “always be prepared.” What better time to put your scout’s training to use and get ready for camping season? First, grab all of your gear from your basement, garage, or wherever you store your stuff. Set-up your tent to air it out and make sure you’re not missing any poles or pieces. Lay out your Rumpl Stash Mat or Original Puffy so you can take inventory of what you have and what needs to be cleaned. Once everything is looking spiffy, you can use your Shammy Towel to wipe away any excess dirt or moisture and voila! Just like that, you’ve earned your camping preparedness badge.

2. In-Tent Movie Showing

Make a movie den in the backyard by setting up your tent and stocking it with your favorite puffy blankets and snacks. Use an iPad or laptop as your screen and stream an old favorite or watch something new. You may never go back to watching movies inside again!

3. Star Gazing

Take your time to bask in the grand mystery of the universe while enjoying earth’s cozy comforts. Relax on your Down Puffy while identifying constellations, or ponder the very meaning of existence from your NanoLoft Puffy. We can’t tell you if that’s the Big Dipper or if there’s life on Mars, but we can promise you’ll be cozy.

4. Enjoy Your Morning Coffee Al Fresco

Remember the feeling of that first sip of coffee outside your tent on a crisp morning? Recreate it by wrapping yourself in a cozy Rumpl and sitting on the porch with a fresh cup.

5. Show A Backyard Movie with Projector

Create your own cinema under the stars! All you need is a projector, some Rumpl blankets, and your favorite snacks. Set-up the projector and wrap up in your go-to blanket so you can stay cozy from start to finish without stepping foot inside.
