Give everyone a job.
Whether the job is helping with cooking, doing dishes, or another camp chore, assign a task to everyone on the trip. Rather than taking turns with different jobs, giving everyone a “specialty” makes expectations clear and allows room to learn efficiency in one particular task. This was my parents’ system on our homeschool-on-the-road camping trips. Each of us six kids had a specific task for setting up camp, and after a few days we slid into our routine and could get a tent set up and dinner on the table in the time it took our neighbors to figure out their pop-top.\\
