OUTDOOR CRAFTS
The outdoor crafts at Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Golden Valley in Bostic, NC, give campers a chance to slow down, get creative, and enjoy hands-on activities in the fresh mountain air. Families can gather at craft stations set up around the campground, often under shaded pavilions or open spaces, where kids and adults alike can make souvenirs to take home. Projects often include tie-dye shirts, sand art, painted ceramics, and themed crafts that connect to the park’s weekly events or holidays. These activities are simple enough for kids but engaging enough that parents often join in, making it a fun way for families to share in something creative together.
What makes the outdoor crafts especially enjoyable is the combination of creativity and community. While working on projects, guests often chat with other families, compare their creations, and laugh over paint splatters or colorful tie-dye results. It’s not just about the finished craft—it’s about the relaxed pace, the chance to use your imagination, and the memories made along the way. Many families make craft time a tradition during their stay, with kids proudly showing off their creations at the campsite or wearing them around the resort. Just like the more active attractions, outdoor crafts add to the variety of experiences at Jellystone, balancing high-energy fun with moments of creativity and calm.
