Baby’s packing list for Camping

Pack n’ Play Playard, Playpen or a travel bassinet for sleeping
Tip: If you camp with an Infant I would recommend taking a Pack and Play anyway. This way your kid can stay there while you busy cooking, assemble your tent and etc.
Baby Carrier and/or backpack baby carrier.
If you plan to do some trekking or some walking in the park, it will be better to use a backpack baby carrier. For all other times, you can use your regular carrier.
Bedding and warm blanket for night time.
Net for the bed and the stroller.
Receiving blankets for changing time
Extra clothes and extra shoes
Tip: Take more clothes than you would think you will use.
Warm clothes for night time.
Tip: It can be very cold at night time, therefore you should bring warm slippers and a jacket for early morning time.
Baby Formula if needed
Baby food
Food utilities
Booster for feeding time
If you have a small one that you can place on any chair or camping table it will be ideal.
Diapers and Wipes
Bring as many as you can, you don’t want to be left without diapers.
Small bags for dirty diapers.
Sunscreen and hat.
Mosquito protection for babies
First aid kit including thermostat, medications to treat fever and after-bite cream.
Shower utilities and towels
Hand sanitizer gel
The gel will be a good tactic to clean your hands before feeding and after changing diapers.
Bathing suit and Swim Pants
If you planning to go swimming every day, bring more than one bathing suit.
Beach Shelter Tent or Sun Block Beach Umbrella
If you plan to go to the beach or if you have a sunny campsite, you will need to provide some shade for your LO’.
Beach kids gear like baby float and sand toy set
Toys, games, balls, books
