ok .. camping trip supply ideas - 5yr old

So tomorrow we leave on our first camp out! Chat Icon

Girl Scouts.
There are going to be 55girls and 25adults
Only 2 are daisies - My daughter and another troop leader's child (who's 6)
I am in charge of the Daises (whooo)
We are using bunk houses (thank god)
Food is supplied (others and me)
Its 2hours out of town
NO SHOWERS!
2 night stay


Here's what I've got:
Clorox wipes (we are responsible for clean up)
trash bags (all trash in must go out with you)
waterless bath wipes
Wipes
feminine wipes (she gets rashy if not cleaned)
Fitted sheet for our twin size bed
Blanket to put under us
Blanket to cover us (we are sharing our bed Just AJ & I)
Mess Kits for both of us
Flashlights for us
A Disney princess movie projection book that displays the princesses with their stories
Cinderella and Snow White golden books
I was thinking of bringing two of my flameless LED candles we used during Halloween as night lights
3 days of clothes (for both of us, jeans)
First aid kit with coritzone, bug spray, sun block and her meds (and Tylenol for me)
ponchos too

What am I missing?

Oh and temp wise...
High of 79
Low of 37
20% chance of rain

I would probably skip the jeans and go with more movable pants- leggings, sweats, yoga pants. And extra pair of shoes in case one gets wet.

Wash cloth/hand towel for each of you- I always find this handy

Duct Tape - many possible uses I always bring a role camping

TP - you never know what they will have at the campsite

card game or or other small game the girls can play before lights out.

roll of paper towels

if you have outdoor folding chairs I would bring them. They are nice to have around the campfire.

Have Fun!

Extra socks. Socks get wet easily, and you always want to keep your feet dry.

Since the only other Daisy is the leader's DC, you shouldn't have to worry about bringing stuff for the other kids.

Will there be campfires? How are you cooking your food?

Download Google Sky (not sure if it's iOS compatible, but definitely on Android). You can see all of the stars and constellations as you point to them, so while you are looking at the sky, you can see on the screen what you are looking at.

OOOH great suggestions! Thank you! We do however have about 12 rolls of duct tape coming. One of our activities is a community service craft of making flower pens and pads. Duct Tape is part of it.

TP & PT totally forgot! Socks is a great one!

We are doing tinfoil packets. I'm bringing AJ and I a breast of chicken I had the meat guy cut in half (thin ways) because they are bringing Fajita seasoned check and AJ wont eat it. we have broccoli, cauliflower and carrots to go with it. First night we are on are own to eat beforehand or bring something with us. We are on our own for lunch (bringing bread and turkey) breakfast is cereal or oatmeal and Im bringing pretzels and cashews as snack options to our carrots.

I do have google sky!

Yes we will have fire. Marshmallows will be roasted (and hot cocoa)
