Use Woodsy-themed or flannel fabric to make pillow cases.

Instead of just numbering tables refer to them as “Camp Sites”

Use tackle boxes as supply boxes.

Create a Survival Guide as your welcome letter and info to parents.

Instead of bathroom passes I made outhouse passes.

Use flashlights to “read the room” or for word wall games.

Make a CD of nature sounds to play.

Provide Lincoln Logs for recess/choice time.
