The great Gran and Grampout

Move over glamping, ‘Gramping’ is the latest camping trend sweeping the Aussie nation. But what is it, you ask? Simply put, it’s camping with grandparents. It may seem obvious, but studies have shown that 86 per cent of grandparents want to spend more time with their grandkids – and what better way than with a taste of adventure in the great outdoors. On 30 November, Aerogard held a Grampout on Sydney’s Cockatoo Island, filled with music, campfire stories, games, special guests such as The Voice winner Harrison Craig, and more. But just because you may have missed out, don’t lose heart – be inspired! A grampout is something you can enjoy any time this summer – and if you register online at aerogardgrampout.com.au, you can download a special ‘Guide to Gramping’ that will give you some basic ideas and pointers for starting the fun. You can even keep it basic and just stick to a grampout in the backyard. Kids and grandparents alike are bound to have a ball. www.aerogardgrampout.com.au
