Please help me overpack for camping with a toddler?




Alyssa and


My mom insists on a family camping trip this summer with all my siblings and step-siblings and stuff. That is all well and good, but she wants it to be for 5 whole days, which is just excessive with a toddler in tow.

I'm not a fan of camping, we never went camping when I was a kid... what on earth will I need for my daughter and I for 5 days/4 nights of camping?

Please, help me make a list of every possible thing we could need. I'd rather have too much and lug it around then be without. My daughter is 19 months old.

Suggestions for bug spray stuff, first aid, clothes, all that, please.



Answer
Diapers
One for every two hours,
Pad to put under your baby during diaper changes
You can buy disposable changing pads at supermarkets or reusable ones at baby stores
Blankets
Bring a few â you'll use them to lay your baby on, cover her, cover yourself if you're nursing, protect your clothes from messy burps, shade your baby, and more
Plastic bags
Carry a variety of sizes for storing soiled diapers, clothes, and blankets
Diaper rash cream
Wipes
Small bottles of disinfecting hand gel, baby wash, and baby lotion
Tissues
Extra pacifiers (if your baby uses one)
A few of your baby's favorite toys
Clothes, socks, and booties or shoes
One to two outfits per day is a good guideline

Sun hat
Lightweight plastic feeding set with utensils, and baby food
If your baby's eating solid foods
Formula, water, and juice if appropriate

Energy-boosting snacks for you to munch on
