When we go camping we replace our tablets with the sea and the TV with making barbecue skewers, all without having to put in a ton of effort: we can relax and connect to our \u201ctribe\u201d without having to worry, while our children meet new friends and explore the magic world of tents, cicadas and plants in the shade of olives and pine trees. With a bit of planning and preparation, everyone is sure to have a good time and come back home with great memories they will never forget. With great freedom provided by the nature and top-level security, our camp is perfectly suited to little campers: we have a great animation team, lovely fun parks, children\u2019s toilet facilities and playgrounds.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Image #2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/camp-kovacine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Animacijski-tim-Lighty-kamp-Kovacine-Cres.webp&#8221; alt=&#8221;Lighty animation team, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Lighty animation team, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres&#8221; force_fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_height=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_height_tablet=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_height_phone=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_height_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;e0931326-e1f5-4a2c-bc9f-a861f6ba6f25&#8243; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Lighty animation team, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||true|false&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_4_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0px||0px||true|false&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>2) Choosing where to pitch your tent<\/h4>\n<p>First of all, find a shaded spot. This is especially important if you plan to rest in the tent with your children at noon. Secondly, find a quiet spot. This might seem unusual, but sometimes the quietest spot is near the camp entry, because people mostly hang out by the sea. Thirdly, the vicinity of toilet facilities is also important, so you don\u2019t have to wander around in the middle of the night. And fourthly, having to carry lots of things to the beach every day (or even several times a day) might mean a spot closer to the sea would be more practical for you.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Image #3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/camp-kovacine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Izbor-parcele-za-sator-kamp-Kovacine-Cres.webp&#8221; alt=&#8221;Choosing a spot for your tent, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Choosing a spot for your tent, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Image&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_height=&#8221;100%&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;e0931326-e1f5-4a2c-bc9f-a861f6ba6f25&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Choosing a spot for your tent, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0px||0px||true|false&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_text ul_item_indent=&#8221;50px&#8221; ul_item_indent_tablet=&#8221;50px&#8221; ul_item_indent_phone=&#8221;25px&#8221; ul_item_indent_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; ul_line_height=&#8221;1.6em&#8221; header_4_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>3) What to pack when camping with your children<\/h4>\n<p>Keep your packing simple. It might seem scary to leave behind all of the creature comforts of your home, especially if your children are young, but focus on what\u2019s important and you\u2019ll be surprised to see how many things you can do without. It\u2019s a good idea to use a travel packing list which includes all of the essentials. You can download our free camping list here:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Weather appropriate clothing for the whole family (check the weather forecast for Kova\u010dine camp in advance; it\u2019s sunny 99% of the time)<\/li>\n<li>Rain boots<\/li>\n<li>Beach toys<\/li>\n<li>Waterproof tent<\/li>\n<li>Camping chairs for the whole family<\/li>\n<li>Refrigerator with food and ice<\/li>\n<li>Lamps<\/li>\n<li>Glow bracelets or necklaces for children to wear at night (so you can keep track of them and for fun!)<\/li>\n<li>Grill cutlery and skewers<\/li>\n<li>Sleeping bags <\/li>\n<li>Bug spray<\/li>\n<li>SPF<\/li>\n<li>First-aid kit, just in case<\/li>\n<li>One or more hammocks and a hammock rope (an absolute hit!)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Before you hit the road, ask yourself: \u201cWhat do we really NEED?\u201d In general, you\u2019ll need your mobile accommodation, food and weather appropriate clothing. Everything else is for fun and convenience.<\/p>\n<p>When packing your children\u2019s clothing, choose darker colours and don\u2019t pack new clothes as they\u2019ll probably get dirty. Also, make it a rule that shoes are not to be worn in the tent to keep the sand and dirt to a minimum. Don\u2019t worry about running out of clean clothes\u2014there are washing machines in each and every toilet facility at the camp!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Image #3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/camp-kovacine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Viseca-mreza\u2013apsolutni-hit-kamp-Kovac\u030cine-Cres.webp&#8221; alt=&#8221;Hammocks\u2014an absolute hit, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Hammocks\u2014an absolute hit, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Image&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_height=&#8221;100%&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;e0931326-e1f5-4a2c-bc9f-a861f6ba6f25&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Hammocks\u2014an absolute hit, Kova\u010dine camp, Cres<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0px||0px||true|false&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_text ul_item_indent=&#8221;50px&#8221; ul_item_indent_tablet=&#8221;50px&#8221; ul_item_indent_phone=&#8221;25px&#8221; ul_item_indent_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; ul_line_height=&#8221;1.6em&#8221; header_4_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>4) Meal planning<\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s good to have an idea of your meals so that you buy food accordingly, without buying too much.

By making sure that everything is planned, you can limit any unnecessary anxiousness, as well as the possibility of things going wrong. Of course, we will gladly help you with making your plans.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Image #3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/camp-kovacine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Vransko-jezero-Cres.webp&#8221; alt=&#8221;Vrana Lake, Cres&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Vrana Lake, Cres&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Image&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_height=&#8221;100%&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;e0931326-e1f5-4a2c-bc9f-a861f6ba6f25&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Vrana Lake, Cres<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0px||0px||true|false&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_text ul_item_indent=&#8221;50px&#8221; ul_item_indent_tablet=&#8221;50px&#8221; ul_item_indent_phone=&#8221;25px&#8221; ul_item_indent_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; ul_line_height=&#8221;1.6em&#8221; header_4_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>6) Check the weather forecast<\/h4>\n<p>Always check the weather forecast so that you\u2019re well prepared. If there is a possibility of rain, pack a few extra tarpaulins. If very high temperatures are expected, pitch your tent in deep shade. In case the temperatures drop, pack a few extra blankets and warm clothes. Keep in mind that summer on Cres is usually hot and sunny and even if the weather forecast predicts rain, it usually rains on the tall mountain called U\u010dka, meaning that the rain doesn\u2019t reach Cres. Instead, we can see that it is raining miles away from us while we\u2019re sunbathing on the beach.<br \/>The front desk also regularly checks the weather forecast and puts it on the information desk every morning.<\/p>\n<h4>7) Dress rehearsal before the opening night<\/h4>\n<p>If you have never pitched a tent before, it would be wise do try it at home so that you know what goes where. Also make sure to arrive at camp well before dark, because there is nothing worse than trying to pitch a tent in the dark while your children are hungry and upset. Avoid this at any cost.<\/p>\n<h4>8) Include your children<\/h4>\n<p>Children want to be included and allowed to help. Give them something to do, like finishing nailing the tent pegs, inflating pillows, washing plastic containers, etc. If your children are too young to help, it is a good idea to have some activity ready to occupy them while you are preparing everything: a toy or food to pass the time, anything that will keep them busy.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Image #3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/camp-kovacine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Radionica-Ruta-Cres-filcanje-vune.webp&#8221; alt=&#8221;\u201cRuta\u201d workshop, Cres, wool felting&#8221; title_text=&#8221;\u201cRuta\u201d workshop, Cres, wool felting&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Image&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_height=&#8221;100%&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;e0931326-e1f5-4a2c-bc9f-a861f6ba6f25&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRuta\u201d workshop, Cres, wool felting<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Text&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0px||0px||true|false&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_text ul_item_indent=&#8221;50px&#8221; ul_item_indent_tablet=&#8221;50px&#8221; ul_item_indent_phone=&#8221;25px&#8221; ul_item_indent_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.25.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; ul_line_height=&#8221;1.6em&#8221; header_4_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4>9) Make it fun!<\/h4>\n<p>Glow sticks are always a hit if you can keep your children awake until it is dark enough.

Remember that the most important thing is to have fun. Turn off all of your devices and allow yourself and your tribe to enjoy the nature, stars, sea, vitamin D, a perfectly-timed wilderness survival course, all of which will turn into memories that will warm your heart for many days ahead.<\/p>\n<p>And if you are also eager, that\u2019s all you really need\u2014so don\u2019t wait any longer!
