Buying Camping Supplies Tents Sleeping Bags Lanterns More
   
Sleeping Bags, Pads, and Pillows
The first thing to consider when buying a sleeping bag is its temperature rating. An adequate bag should exceed the temperature extremes where you camp. You'll find light sleeping bags rated at 40° to 50° for summer camping, heavy mountaineering bags rated at -20° and below, and everything in between. There are mummy, rectangular, and even double sleeping bags.
Coolers and Ice Chests
If you like cold drinks at the campground or you need to preserve perishable foods, you're going to need a cooler or ice-chest. The size and efficiency of any cooler will be determined by your camping habits. Take a look at the variety of coolers available before deciding on which one is right for you.
Tents
Tents come in many shapes, sizes, and styles. For family camping you'll likely want a large dome tent or a multi-room rectangular tent. Shop around to find the one that offers you the room and privacy to camp in comfort with your family.
Camp Stoves
A camp stove is another essential item needed for camping. Cold foods get old after a while, and you can only cook so many dishes over a campfire or on a grill. Like lanterns, there are various styles and different fuels used. Shop around to familiarize yourself with the choices before purchasing.
