Kidoinfo.com Page 5 Prepare a "Camp Bag" for your kids!

The idea: Develop a Camp Bag (or Bucket) filled with necessary camp items that you can access year after year. After developing this bag/bucket the first time, you will only need to replace perishable items each year.

Imagine the time you will save, not to mention the aggravation! Here is a list of needed items for camp to get you started on your own Camp Bag or Bucket:

Hat, bandana, sunglasses, sun block, lip balm with SPF Swimsuit, swimming goggles, swim shirt with UV protection, swim shoes Toothbrush, toothpaste, hairbrush, comb, soap, shampoo, wash cloths, shower shoes Rain gear, umbrella, warm clothing, extra clothing including socks and underwear Sneakers, hiking boots, flip flops, sandals, extra pair of shoes Hand towels, beach towels, tissues, wet wipes, hand sanitizer, eyeglass cleaner Flashlight, spare batteries, insect repellant, first aid kit Laundry bag, plastic bags for small or wet items Reusable water bottle or canteen, small backpack or tote for day trips Sleeping bag, bedding, blankets, pillow, tarp, air mattress Family photos, writing paper, pre-addressed envelopes, stamps, pens/pencils Books, deck of cards, games, camera, spending money
