Camping with kids... Help!

[{sarah}]

Well I'm not so sure it's going to be happening anymore. It is absolutely pouring here at the moment & has been since Christmas Day, unfortunately the prediction for where we're going is the same until Saturday. I really don't want to have to deal with two kids & very little distraction in the rain. Hmmm

What a bummer about the rain!!!!

Oh man, I love you Sarah, the only person I know who has a spreadsheet for camping!!

you should be able to find a kids camping set at the sams warehouse for 20-30 bucks which have cartoons and are colourful and have a sleeping bag, mini tent and air mattress. Kids sleeping bags are really thin, so you'll need extra blankies but they'll love having their own stuff. You can pick up cheapo kids fishing rods and yabby nets there too, essential gear for kids camping lol!

I agree with the portable toilet though, if you have that much extra cash, rays outdoors usually have them somewhere about 100 bucks, definetly worthwhile!

Well, I was coming in here to say Happy Camping! - not much to add to what everyone else has said, it's all been covered - bummer about the rain though. Hope it clears & you can go & have a great time

*giggle* What are you trying to say Maz darlink? That I am a geek & over organise everything


We're still hoping the rain clears, it has here, but the prediction is still for heavy rain for the three days I'll talk to our friends about what the wet weather plans would be.

This morning the prediction in the area is fine but cloudy so we're back on! Back to continue with my list making!

A torch each for the children. You can get good ones (not plastic) at the Post Office, the breast cancer awareness ones are only about $5.

It's officially off now We were going with two groups of friends, one with us tomorrow & the other couple were going today.... The ones going today got turned around because of the bad weather & some flooding on the way. I'm more disappointed then I thought I'd be!

Awwwww, bugger.
