Answer
I stared around the house in disbelief. Only two days away for some "me time" and I come home to this?! It looked more like a war zone than four sons and a husby set loose on the house for two days. I tried to see something positive about it, and my imagination took me away...
They went camping IN the house. Why? Don't ask me; in theory it made sense to them. Both the office and the living room were setup as "camp" complete with tents, urinals, and kerosene campstoves. The kitchen was wall-to-wall coolers, and both bathrooms sported water balloons, both burst and ready-to-fire. All the furniture had been redecorated to look like the great outdoors, and the "No Littering", "You are Here" maps and Smokey the Bear "Put out your fire" signs were worse than actual litter would have been.
Aigan sneezed three times in a row, just like DaDa. "Would you PLEASE stop using my shirt as your kleenex!" hollered his oldest brother, Eoin (Ian). "Yeeeshhht," replied Aigan with his toddler voice, shaking his head "No" at the same time. Meanwhile, Bryan ran around with tinfoil antennae on his head. Six-year-old Breandan was screaming, "You can read minds?!! Cool, dude. Will you make me one too so I can put up the tent by myself without having to ask DaDa how?" Eoin's teenage response was a typical, "That might make sense on your home planet of Pluto, but here on earth, it's CUCKOO!!" with the "You're crazy" circling of finger by forehead.
"Au contraire," responded DaDa, sporting his own antennae made out of a broken radio antennae and a metal barbecue flipper duct-taped together. "Your brothers make perfect sense on this earth. You just need your own antennae!" Eoin muttered, "Take me, God. Just take me," even as he fashioned his own out of ball point pen innards and some blunt children's scissors. He pretended (or did he really succeed?) to read Aigan's toddler mind, then cracked up. "I only have a few brain cells left....Have mercy on me. You think some straaaaange things, little bro."
Bryan, who was nine, had decided to revisit his own toddler days. Some or all of them had decorated a previously pristine toilet in several shades of blue permanent marker, and Bryan was industriously feeding it Aigan's "little people." As a toddler, Bryan would feed the toilet various items because he thought it was hungry. Presumably at the moment he was pretending it was a lake, because he said, "The lake never gives up her dead. MUAWWWWWW!" as he flushed and flooded it. Aigan copied his brother by feeding various toy blocks to it, then tried to help mop up the mess all over the floor with toilet paper. "Clean up lake!" all four boys were chanting as DaDa ran to the scene. "You're killing me, babe....JUST killing me," stated DaDa, rolling his eyes and trying not to laugh. "If you want to dam up the lake, you've gotta use something more substantial," and tossed them some knotted up towels he touted as sandbags.
After many more such comic campout antics, everyone was in tents for the night telling ghost and campfire stories and singing all sorts of goofy songs. "And now the radio has gone dead. PERFECT!" pouted Eoin. "I was using it with earbuds to drown out your meager storytelling and mangling of music singing!"
...now in a MUCH more humorous frame of mind, I giggled and started cleaning up the mess. I figured all of our tales of the campout would make great bedtime stories for days to come, and we've framed the antennae.

Camping Room Ideas for a Toddler Boy?
KrzyMom2
Our son has a camping theme room, fairly good size room. We painted it Limey Grassy Green and it has tan carpet and white ceilings with a white ceiling fan. He has 2 giant Leaves over his light wooden twin bed (leaves are from Ikea). He has camping themed bedding and bug sheets (although I'd be interested in finding another set of the bug sheets - we got the bedding set from Target on clearance a couple years ago). He has a matching lamp with scout patches on it. He has a nightstand and a dresser with a mirror on it. My dad is making him a canoe bookshelf (either red or navy blue). He just has regular blinds on his windows right now. Oh, and a big green bug light on his wall. Along the wall that the big leaves and his bed is on, we have his name letters - navy blue from Pottery Barn Kids. Any ideas for things to put on his dresser and bookshelf? Also, we could use 1 or 2 big pictures for his wall!
Answer
How absolutely FUN! I did one of my son's room in a similar theme many years ago! His was more western, but outdoorsy just the same. I used bright red bandannas to make a valance over his miniblinds, with the points hanging down. Looked really cute.
Some camping ideas...
Cover a round hassock/footstool in a wood grain pattern fabric, or use canvas and paint it to look like a tree stump.
Old bamboo fishing poles for a valance curtain rod, hang fabric (maybe a cute fish print? Run to the fabric store!) using thin rope or string tied as loops through grommets. Old oars would work too, or new ones brightly painted, and you could staple the fabric to the back and then mount them using L brackets over the window.
I love these! http://www.collectionsetc.com/Item50462.aspx
Glow in the dark decals in the shape of stars for his ceiling? They are available practically everywhere, check Walmart!
And where are the little darling's toys going? A little pup tent or teepee maybe? Or even a small inflatable raft or canoe to match the book shelf gramps is making!
A bug rug http://www.terrysvillage.com/tvweb/application?namespace=browse&origin=categoryDisplay.jsp&event=link.itemDetails&sku=91/3276&mode=Browsing&catDestinationJSP=/browse/categoryForward.jsp?categoryId=122686
Time can be directional! Paint a round clock face to look like a compass!
Oh, dear, I'm affraid I could go on and on the more I think about it. But one thing for sure, if it's a camping bedroom he NEEDS this, LOL! http://www.signals.com/signals/Shop-By-Theme_5AA/Nature_5AM/Item_Faux-Fireflies-Jar_HA7432_ps_cti-5AM.html
Just have fun with it! I'd love to be able to see what it turns into!
