How To Make A Comfy Bed

At any sleep away camp, you are going from the luxury of your home with a nice bed, to a plastic mattress on a bunk bed. I hate to tell you this, but the beds are sooooo uncomfortable if you do not make it correctly. However, I have some great tips to get the back and neck ache away, and a good night sleep every time you climb onto your bed.


TIPS TO MAKE A GREAT BED
1. Start off with a mattress cover/ bug lock. Since camp is all outdoors, little creatures find ways to come in, and they are not welcome in our beds!

2. An egg crate mattress pad. This is a foam pad that makes it so you can sink into the bed which will make it much more comfy.

3. A feather bed. If you do not have a feather bed a duvet cover can be a great replacement.

4. The bottom sheet
5. The top sheet
6. Your comforter. Make sure that this is not too heavy because it is summer and SUPER hot out
7. Add a blanket at the end of your bed. Some nights it's too hot to even sleep under your light comforter so the blanket comes in handy.
