0/4How to use this family camping checklist
Pack one small bag per child with their own clothes and a comfort item, and let older kids tick their list themselves. Bring more warm layers and spare clothes than you think — kids get wet and muddy. Plan simple meals they already like, and pick a campsite close to toilets and water for the first trip. Camping with another family? Share the big items like the canopy, games and stove.
