I have done it many times growing up. Sometimes without the tent, just in a sleeping bag. It's a lot of fun.

:-) I tried that one summer when I was 7, with my neighbour Beatrice. Mum was a bit worried and kept coming out to check on us, and eventually I let her convince me to come back inside.
It was great fun though, but it did end up getting a bit cold later:-)

My kids did that after getting a tent for Christmas from Santa, and we bought them sleeping bags.
We left the front door open for them, and kept a good eye on them.
They stayed there all night, and wanted to do it again.

Yes! We did this many times at my house when we were children! I hope to do it this summer with my two girls!

I loved to sleep out in the tent when I was younger. I didn't do it until I was about 14 and I had a few friends stay with me. It was a lot of fun but it makes you appreciate your bed so much more.lol.

I used to do this alot as a child. When I was around 10 years old I had a slumber party and we stayed in a tent in the back yard. We had a great time. We stayed out in the tent the whole night. My mom had made us treats and drinks to have. My dad had set up Christmas lights for us to plug in if we got scared. They made a path to the house from the back yard.

Your wait will go in waste. Becoz u will find that they will complet eth ewhole night at there.
It will be nice to sleep out in a tent in your house backyard or even some other place. U know the logic and reason behind it.
CHANGE IN PLACE WILL CHANGE YOUR THOUGHTS AND MIND AND U WILL FIND A CHANGE IN YOUR ATTITUDE AND CHANGE IN YOUR HAPPINESS.
TRY IT U WILL FIND

When we lived on the farm, my kids always slept in the yard in a tent. What wonderful place are you that yours can do this in December? Did they make it all night? These are some of the best memories ever and one of the reasons my 4 are so close. Good job letting your kids have adventure and independence!

I never slept outside in a tent as a child.But after I was married we went a vacation with my sister and her husband,and our kids. To save motel expensives we did some camping out.I did not think it would be much fun, but I really enjoyed it.We even cooked our breakfest over a camp fire.
