INDOOR SUMMER CAMPING FUN & IDEAS
Summer screams traditions — camping, hiking, road tripping, flying, adventuring, etc, etc.
While this summer is looking a lot different, who’s to say that we can’t have fun and even create new traditions and make lots and lotsa memories while at it!?
With a little bit of creativity, plenty of imagination, and a great deal of help from our friends at Amazon and Alexa, my little one & I spent an afternoon together converting his room into a jungle. Now he can go camping whenever he fancies, start a campfire, make S’mores, and read camp stories, all while listening to campfire sounds.

As many camps across the country are staying closed or making other changes, Amazon Prime is helping families everywhere enjoy cherished summer traditions. To help keep our kids (and us parents) entertained, active, and engaged no matter where we are, they have created the first-ever “Camp Prime!”
Whatever your summer tradition, Camp Prime has something for you. From instructions for building a bug house to everything you need for campfire storytelling, the Camp Prime Handbook is full of activities & ideas for summer family fun.
Camp Prime is free & available for all families to enjoy, but Prime members can extend their experience with additional Camp Prime-themed content including Prime Video, Prime Reading, Amazon Music, and more.
Amazon Prime is also donating to Boys & Girls Clubs to help keep kids engaged this summer. You too can help support your local Boys & Girls Club by selecting them as your charity of choice on AmazonSmile, donating directly through AmazonSmile Charity Lists, or simply saying “Alexa, donate to the Boys and Girls Clubs.”
Visit Amazon.com/campprime to participate in the curated activities, and put your own spin on the Camp Prime activities. After all, isn’t that what traditions are all about, making things our own!
