Sit Upon for Camp
I have to tell you that this is the coolest thing ever!! We were away for a few days visiting my mom and the way we schedule it, we would be getting home late at night. The 3 girls needed to leave before dawn for camp. One of the items on their list was a sit-upon. They haven't needed a sit-upon in years. Usually they are told to bring a camp chair, which is more comfortable but I'm guessing space was an issue for transportation. I was entertaining buying an outdoor tablecloth and cutting up, putting newspaper between the layers and stitching up the sides. Then I came across this idea. Score! So easy and cheap.
As you can see from the picture above, it is a store bag and duct tape for the sides. You really don't have to even stuff it with anything but I opted for some foam so they could have a little cushion from the rocks. I think if you put newspaper inside, the weight of the paper would cause the handles to lift up on the tape. Super light weight, practical, and quick to assemble. All 3 were made in 30 minutes.
The girls told me that people at camp thought it was a good idea. Maybe we'll see more of them next year. :)
