We havent been camping yet with our little ones, we have a 4yr old and a 16mth old so this topic had crossed my mind ... how to keep them amused in the morning!
I like the idea of early nature walks and also somebody else suggested to me as well as colouring books, take glue and scrap books so they can collect bits thru their little holiday. To be completed in the mornings! :-)
We are tin tenters, but ours will generally sleep till gone seven, then I usually have an hour with them both squished into my single bed with me - most uncomfortable but moments to treasure as they won't want to do it for long really. The 18 month old is hardest to keep quiet as of course he has no concept of volume, is just learning to talk and find the whole thing so very exciting that it must all be commented upon as loudly and as often as possible, which makes the 6 year old giddy and daft! I think the early morning walk problem may well be the way to go, esp now we have an awning big enough to take the buggy so I don't need to noisily retrieve it from the car boot!
The problem with unleashing them as weapons of mass retaliation against the late night noise-makers is that there will then be some poor sod on the next pitch over who has now copped for late night AND early morning disturbance on his holiday!

yes, this ^^^^^^^^^^ I have been pitched between late night revelers and early morning banging/shouting/screaching families. Was most unpleasant.
