Advance Planning for Kids' Sleepaway Summer Camp
1.
2. It may be hard to imagine summer if you’re still
experiencing cold and snow, but the fact remains that
the warm season will be here before you know it.
Summer for many kids means sleepaway camp, so
it's wise to start preparing a list of what you'll need
now before it's time to head out for another adventure.
3. Knowing the essential things to bring -- as well as
what's best off left at home -- can help you better
prepare for the adventure.
5. It’s summer camp after all, so swimwear is essential.
It's a good idea to bring at least three to four bathing
suits or swim trunks so you always have a dry pair to
wear while the others are drying out.
6. Some camps do not allow
bikinis, only one-piece
swimsuits, so be sure to check.
7. 12 pairs of socks and two pairs of sneakers are
recommended, along with a (broken-in) pair of hiking
boots.
Sneakers are imperative for fitness activities but flipflops are OK for those lounging-around times…and
remember, camp is the one place where Crocs are
still cool!
8. Figure on 12 pairs of underwear.
Bring 10 t-shirts plus a few longsleeved tees, 2 sweatshirts and
8-10 pairs of shorts.
At least half of those should be
athletic shorts.
9. The main idea here is comfort. Leave the designer
clothes at home and pack not only comfortable
clothing but inexpensive clothing as well.
You'll be engaging in lots of nature, fitness and sports
activities that lend themselves to dirty days. Bring
clothes you don't mind ruining.
10. Pack your favorite pillow with a couple of cases and 2
sets of twin-size sheets (flat and fitted).
You’ll need a comforter or 3 blankets for those chilly
nights, as well as 2 or 3 pairs of pajamas.
11. A flashlight with extra batteries
is a good idea for nighttime
when you have to navigate
from the campfire to your camp
or from your bed to the
bathroom.
12. Don't forget your personal items; use a shower caddy
to hold comb or hairbrush, toothbrush and toothpaste,
biodegradable shampoo, body soap and deodorant
(please!).
You’ll need 5 towels and 4 washcloths too.
13. Speaking of personal items,
guys – you may want to bring
along a protective cup since
you’ll be participating in a
variety of sports.
14. Protect yourself against the sun and irritating bugs
with plenty of sunscreen and insect repellent.
You'll go through a lot so bring a couple of bottles of
each just to be safe.
15. Don’t forget hats with brims
to keep the sun off your face,
and a liter water bottle to
keep hydrated.
16. Be prepared for rainy days by bringing a waterrepellent rain jacket.
Toss in a fleece for chilly evenings, along with 2 or 3
pairs of long pants. Don’t forget your sleeping bag,
and you may want a cushy mat to place under it for
added comfort.
17. Other equipment you may want
to add, or may be required by
your summer camp, include shin
guards, soccer cleats, tennis
racquet, softball/baseball glove,
and lacrosse stick, pads and
helmet.
18. Bring a daypack to carry your essentials. If you’re an
older camper you may need a frame pack for longer
hiking trips.
You'll also need pens, pencils and paper to write letters or
journal entries. Optional items you don't have to bring but
may want to include fishing tackle, camera, musical
instrument and comfort items such as your favorite
stuffed animal.
19. Don’t forget – ALL of this has to be clearly labeled with
your full name.
Depending upon the item, you can use indelible pen,
sewn-on or iron-on name tapes, or a labeler such as a
Label Daddy.
21. When headed out for summer camp, there are some
things that are best left at home.
Most camps do not allow cell phones, e-readers, two-way
radios, electronic video games, pocket knives, gum,
candy, jewelry and makeup.
22. The point of summer camp is to disconnect from the
virtual world and enter the real one, meeting new people
and re-connecting with old friends.
Besides, many times cell phone reception is sketchy at
best and you won't get a signal anyway. If you need to
make a phone call, you can always use the camp phones.
23. Now, what do you put all this stuff in?
A large, soft-sided duffel will do the trick.
Rolling clothing, instead of folding it, can help you save
space while preventing wrinkles.
24. Preparing the essentials for summer camp can be an
exciting time.
It's wise to use a checklist so as you pack, so you can
make sure you are bringing everything you need.
