What To Pack When Camping For A Week

Last night my daughter and I packed our cloths for our five day camping trip coming up next week. I washed everything is unscented soap and focused on packing old cloths. Adrienne who is five loves this activity. I like packing cloth several days before our trip so I have time to wash anything that needs to be washed and because I know the days leading up to such a big trip will be busy with cooking/freezing food, shopping, planning and pulling it all together.

Here are a few links to help you get started knowing what to pack for a week long trip:

Check out my April posts for other ideas.

Here are few note to consider:


Cloths: I like clean cloths so a long trip means packing more, washing a few things or I check to see if they have a laundry facility. BRING CHANGE if they do. Wash all your cloths in scent free detergent so your not attracting mosquito's.

3 Long Sleeve Shirts
3 Short Sleeve Shirts
3 Tank Tops (good for layering cool days/nights)
