Day Camp Packing Check List for this Summer:

• Backpack (we love this Mermaid drawstring backpack from Wawsam)
• Stainless steel water bottle (any from Elemental are amazing, and kids LOVE their Iconic line with pop fidget straps!!)
• Insulated lunch bag like this one from Joyhill
• Water safe shoes like these Dream Pairs closed toe water sandals
• Swimsuit - we're loving this Arshiner cutout one piece bathing suit
• Swim Goggles
• UPF 50+ Swim Shirt / Rash Guard (UV Skinz has the BEST UPF Swimwear for babies, kids and adults)
• SPF 50+ Zinc-based sweat and water resistant (or proof) sunblock (we love ThinkSport and all the sunscreens in the THINK family)
• Sun hat (UV Skinz has some cute water safe sun hats and visors - some come in a 3-piece set with rash guard, swim skirt, and sun hat!)
• LABELS LABELS and more LABELS!!! Mabel's Label's has got you here with their amazing durable dishwasher-safe washing machine safe fully customizable labels!! Shop here - they're having HUGE sales on their summer camp sets as well as individual items like water bottle bands, bag tags, and a bazillion sizes and styles of labels!
• Optional things to think about: bug repellent, rainy day books and crafts, a first smart phone (like our favorite Teracube Thrive) for kids and tweens (perfect for 8-17 years old) or first smart watch for younger ones (we love TickTalk smart watch for kids ages 4-10 years).
