I'm seriously considering taking the children camping in the summer holidays. We can't afford a proper holiday this year (well, for the past 5 years actually but never mind)and I was looking at the tents in Tesco's. For £100 you get a family tent, four sleeping bags, a double inflatable mattress and two foam ones. Seems like a bargain! For just a few days we could survive on takeaways and sandwiches I'm sure.
There's a place we used to go to every year when I was a kid (we had our own caravan though)which was absolute heaven. I've been back since so I know it's just the same and I'm not looking through rose-coloured specs! I miss it like mad, especially when the weather starts to get nice and would LOVE for my kids to have the same experience.
Is it a bad idea with an autistic child? Has anyone ever taken their asd child camping? Is it illegal to tether a child to the back of a car?!!
