Answer 2

A sarong can be used for a beach cover up/dress, towel, sheet, curtain,tye up the corners and you have a big bag.

So I guess I am suggesting you take things that can serve more than one purpose.

We go out on a boat for up to 2 weeks and have to carry everything including water. Simple craft item like card making(I like to make Xmas cards)or crocheting/knitting and always a big thick book to read. Or maybe just a journal to jot down all the magical things that happen when you are out with Mother Nature.

Peace.

Answer 3

If you forget everything else, remember the bug spray and sunblock...and it wouldn't hurt to have some aloe.  Since you have little ones (who don't respond so well to sunburn) try to get the strongest spf you can find...but 50 will probably be okay.  

Remember plenty of flashlights, batteries, a lantern...also some matches or a striker for the fire.  Bring smore fixin's!!  Take plenty of towels and jugs of water.  I always pack fingernail clippers wherever I go...just sayin'..it's a must for ME.  I would HIGHLY advise you to pack some benadryl and benadryl creme on your trip...if a bug bites the youngest one, you could have an emergency on your hands.  Headache medicine might be a good backup, too...I know too much sun gives me a headache...Band-aids might be good to have on hand.  

Take food that you don't have to worry about spoiling...peanut butter, bread, crackers...and think of the snacks  your son eats at home (fruit snacks?).  

Bring some stuff to occupy the little one (coloring book, a couple of toys), as this is a long trip for someone with a short attention span.  Advise your daughter to bring along some stuff, as well (book, paper/pen, camera).

I hope you guys have a good time!

Answer 4

Baby Wipes!!! I see your son is 3, so you're pretty much out of the wipes phase, but they are great to have around when camping and/or fishing.
