Packing List for Summer Camp

Today’s post is sponsored by Pampers Underjams, but all opinions are my own! #ConquerBedWetting

This summer, our older two children will be attending summer camp for their first time. Thankfully, my husband is on the board of directors of the camp and so we’ll both be going, too. 😉 Nothing like a little extra supervision, right?

When I was growing up, my best friend Tasha and I would literally start counting the days to church camp several months ahead. We made our packing list for summer camp well in advance and put together the perfect outfits for each day. It really was the highlight of my summer each year. Ben and I also somewhat began our relationship at summer camp as counselors- all in all, camp has a very special place in my heart!

I thought it would be fun to make a printable packing list for summer camp for my kids so they could start getting their items together and we could see if there is anything we need to buy. There are several things like a flashlight, bug spray, and a hat that are good things to have but easy to forget.

One item that makes camp a whole lot better for those kids who suffer from enuresis (bed wetting) is Pampers UnderJams. One of our children suffered from this for a long time. Bed-wetting at an older age can be very embarrassing for the child and may prevent them from wanting to do normal kids’ activities for fear of having an accident. And anything parents can do to ease that embarrassment makes their lives so much better. I love that UnderJams feature ComfortWear which is quiet, cloth-like material for privacy and, they have a low waist so only the child knows he/she is wearing them. (And chances are, your child isn’t the only one wearing them!)

enuresis

As you can tell from the infographic above, enuresis affects lots of children and in most cases, is something they truly cannot control. In our family, the child that had enuresis just slept so soundly that waking up the middle of the night was almost impossible. Even alarms didn’t do the trick! Thankfully UnderJams kept our kiddo dry through the night.

I can hardly wait for summer camp this year- what would you add to this list?

  1. What a great list. My head is usually so scattered with all the things to do before a trip that this will certainly help organize me. I’ll be sharing this with other moms of young children.

  2. We use something similar but a different brand( GoodNites). We also have some disposable sheets that helps with manage the bedwetting.
