That’s right, nothing sparks those little adventurers more than a cool Camper Van Themed Kids Bedroom. So get those little tykes ready for a bumper collection of story recommendations.
Adventure takes on many forms and feeds many an imagination, but surely nothing can embody adventure quite like the great outdoors can? Camping can be a wonderful experience with the family and any form of ‘survival’ can really bond siblings, whether Bear Grylls style pushing the human spirit to the limit, or a simple two man tent at the bottom of the garden- its about getting out of the house, away from modern devices and lying under the stars. However, the great British weather isn’t always as forgiving when it comes to those great British camping holidays. So, if you have a little explorer who cannot wait for the next camping holiday or simply just loves to camp, why not check the ultra cool Campervan Bunk Bed from Julian Bowen. The ladder even looks like a surfboard!
