Our Camping List

Now that we have been camping a few times as a family, I'm starting to develop a good list for things that we always bring. I always seem to forget one or two vital things when we go (and they differ each time!), so I am going to put the list of our staple camping items (or items that we want to bring in the future) on here as a resource.

What are the things that you like to take on your camping trips? What meals do you like to have when you go?

• Tent, tarp, camp bed mats, sleeping bags, pillows
• Camping chairs
• Broom to sweep out tent and tarp
• Flashlights and lantern
• Paper towels
• Garbage bags
• Wet wipes
• Metal roasters for s'mores and hot dogs
• Mosquito repellant, citronella candles
• Sunscreen, sunglasses, hats
• Dinner: chili hot dogs, canned green beans, s'mores
• Breakfast: muffins, juice, fresh fruit, hot chocolate
• Plates, cups, utensils, camping pot set
• Heat-resistant cups for serving hot chocolate
• Can opener
• Food cooler and water cooler
• Water bottles
• Sleeping mask and ear plugs (for me!)
• Things to entertain Sam in the car
