On the camping

Camping is a wonderful way to experience peace in the middle of nature and yet not to completely avoid some advantages. Camping and children also mean significantly more luggage! After all, a lot more has to be stowed away in the suitcases. The purchase of a roof luggage box ensures additional storage space. Strollers, travel beds and Co. find a place on the trip.

Equipment for camping vacation as a family

Don't worry, of course you don't have to carry the entire household. In general, create a small checklist in good time. This reminds them of the most important things that should not be missing later during camping.

Checklist

Camping with babies requires a good division in the tent. A three people tent is the minimum. A spacious family tent is even better. This offers you the opportunity to set up a small travel bed and to set up a small, separate area for wrapping, playing and feeding. You should order this in such a way that it can be reached at any time without any reason. A camping cabinet ensures order and overview. Think of good insulation against dirt and cold when it comes to setting up the sleeping area. Even in summer, the nights can be cool every now and then.

Air mattresses are bad. Always place an isolate or heat protection ceiling underneath.

Where can the baby sleep while camping?

The size of the tent primarily decides. In a spacious family tent it is easy to set up a small travel bed. Her baby sleeps between them in smaller tents. As an ideal sleeping place, the tub turned out from the stroller. This is not only stable. This lies your little angel well -protected and safe. If you plan camping with a toddler, it no longer sleeps in a travel cot, but on your own mat or cozy between the parents.

No tent at hand? Alternatives offer caravans, motorhomes and bungalow

You are already looking forward to your vacation, but don't have a tent yet? That is half as wild. Numerous campsites in Europe are now offering alternatives. A small bungalow or a caravan can be booked directly on the pitch before the start of the trip. The accommodation in the caravan usually does not offer much more space than a tent. Nevertheless, you can look forward to a little more comfort with toddler or baby.

Motorhome as an alternative to the tent

How much clothing for children need our vacation on the campsite

How much clothing you take in your suitcases depends a little on the conditions on the campsite. Many offer washing facilities. The use of washing machine and dryer ensures fresh laundry. So you do not have to pack the complete content of the wardrobe. At this point, however, it would be important to be prepared for every weather. This becomes particularly interesting for a toddler. Rain things now belong to the luggage as well as sun hat and hiking shoes. Headgear are very important in summer. Babies and toddlers should wear a slight hat with a wide brim, so that the ears and neck are also protected.

Sunscreen, insect protection and co

Sunscreen, insect protection and Co.

Preventive remedies for sunburn and insect bites are not to be forgotten. A high sun protection factor is extremely important for children to protect the sensitive skin well. Mild lotions keep the stinging insects away, are only applied after the sunscreen. With light sunburn, after-sun lotions for babies and toddlers have a pleasant and cooling effect. You should also have something against insect bites and tick pliers with you. Of course, a small travel pharmacy should never be missing. Belong in there:

• Fever

After swimming - do not forget changes for the children!
