Hi Scott. Welcome to the camping group!
Excitement the first time is to be expected 🙂
However, we always found, that a day outside and lots of activities, meant that our ones always went to sleep well when they were that age. So hopefully, when you go camping for real, he should be quite tired by bedtime…. fingers crossed!
