The school holidays are around the corner, and Muhamad Nidhal Mohamad Syazwan, 10, is looking forward to going on not one but two camping trips with his family.
“We are heading to Pantai Cenang and Tanjung Rhu in Langkawi next week. I am excited to do some of my favourite activities like camping, bushcraft (wilderness survival skills) and stand-up paddling. I can’t wait to build a campfire with my father too,” he said enthusiastically.

The couple want their children to be resilient and love nature as much as they do by exposing them to the outdoors from a very young age.
Muhamad Nidhal helps his mother to set up the tent. It’s is a huge achievement for the young boy and has boosted his self-esteem.
Roasting marshmallows by the fire is one of the fun activities for the children on their trips.
