I like to plan, so I have already figured out most of camp for all four of my kids this summer. Three of them will be away at some sleep away camps for a little bit of the summer and one will be going to one of day camps for her first time. I really have never done more than purchase camp bags for Hanukkah. Recently someone asked for ideas for camp so they could do it as Hanukkah gifts, so I figured I would share some of the ideas.
Camp Bags
I remember having to schlep my camp bag to my bunk and it was loaded on the buses when we left. Things are so different now, I had to send stuff on a truck a couple days before camp started and the bags were waiting in their bunks. So I initially bought wheeled bags for my older girls, but I don’t think it’s necessary if camp is doing the heavy lifting. Last summer was the first summer we didn’t pick the kids up straight from one of the camps and I realized if it at all possible don’t pick black bags.

Do you need to label all of your clothing? I purchased this
customized clothing stamper and I have found that it really works well on light colored clothing. I usually need to remember to order the replacement refills in enough time for camp. I bought one for the family that says our family name and then our email address. This way I can use it for all of the kids. Our last name is pretty unique so likeliness of having someone else with the same last name is they will probably be related.
- Personalize your clothing with this non-toxic and easy to use stamp.
- Good for 40+ washes (up to 90Á water temperature).
- Up to 2 lines of text with approx 16 characters per line is recommended per stamp.
- It is necessary to wait 24 hours before first wash.
