[quote=Anonymous]My boys are 10 and 12 and now have their own tent. I got a Coleman easy up cabin style tent that is so ridiculously easy to set up and take down. It's a bit more expensive and definitely heavier than a comparable traditional tent, but it's so worth it. We have a fake grass "rug" that goes in front of their tent and slightly under the front of it that is invaluable for keeping the dirt out. Otherwise they track in everything with constantly going in and out of their tent. I also have an exped megamat w+l (size of a Q bed) that is worth every cent. I prefer using a flannel fitted sheet on my megamat and a thick sub-zero double sleeping bag unzipped as a blanket. The boys have individual sleeping pads, cheap 3 season sleeping bags, and sleep with long underwear if it's chilly. We don't camp in sub zero weather, but this is fine for camping when it's in the 40s overnight. [/quote]
