You never know what will happen or when. If you can take a first aid class, do so. You can use this knowledge anywhere, anytime. It is priceless information that may save someone's life. They teach all kinds of camping safety. What kind of things can happen at a campground? Well, let's see. There are trees, rocks, water, sand, ticks, mosquitoes, snakes, bees, sun, boats and the In an emergency situation, such as a snake bite, be ready to head to the nearest hospital. Gather that kind of information and keep it handy BEFORE you get to the campground. I keep a cork board and a dry erase board hanging in the camper. On the cork board, I have emergency phone numbers. These include the hospital, family, friends readily available and park host station. Make everyone aware of these numbers and when to use them. The dry erase board is for notes to each other. If you are going out of your camp area, leave a note for other family members as to where you are going and what time you left. When you come back, just erase it.
Other issues include CPR and allergic reactions. Learn to use CPR if at all possible. Water safety is of the utmost importance in camping safety. Teach your children how to buckle them on. They truly do save lives. People who are allergic to plants or bees have reactions to them and start swelling in the exposed area very quickly. You may save a life, just knowing how to handle these things. If you have any questions about any situation you find yourself in, just call out for help. You will find people willing to do whatever necessary to come to your aid. 
Teach your children what to do to prevent forest fires. There are trees all around your camp site and fires can get out of control. Keep all fires in designated areas only. That means the ground and surroundings are too dried out to make a fire. Please follow all campground rules. They are there for your protection. Always have a way to put out an out of hand fire. Wind blowing can carry burning debris and create a fire elsewhere. Always be aware of using camping safety for your protection as well as those you are camping next to. If you are not familiar with the campground safety rules, ask the attendant on duty for a copy of them. Make sure your children know the rules and follow them. It is for their safety, also. Always encourage them to report any suspicious happenings to an adult.
