We decided at the last minute to check out Jellystone Park for some family camping the week of Thanksgiving. The park was only about an hour away and it had cabins, running water, a full kitchen and Wifi. Sounded like a great place! The weather was perfect and we found lots to do during our four day stay.
A hay ride around the park.
The kids loved meeting the Yogi Bear characters. We met Boo Boo bear the first day.
The human maze was a big hit with the kids. The girls were great at figuring out where the entrance and exits were.
I took the little ones for a nap one afternoon while Daddy and Karis, hiked, played paintball, bounced in the bounce houses and played horse shoe.
We took a night time ride on a vintage fire truck where we met Yogi Bear.
Kyle was a bit frightened by the large bear. He would only take a picture if Daddy was there to protect him.
The kids loved just hanging out in the cabin. The girls stayed upstairs in the loft.

There was a playground.
And plenty of space to run around.
I made the kids a journal where they wrote every day about the weather, what they did, and what was their favorite activities.

A train ride.
We spent a lot of time in the mess hall coloring, playing ping pong and dancing on the stage. The kids learned all about Yogi Bear during our stay. We even found a couple of old TV episodes on the iPad for the kids to watch.
S'mores!
The campsite had activities throughout the day. We went to craft time where the kids made paper turkeys and wrote what they are thankful for.

We definitely made lots of memories on our trip!
