We are off to Gorsley Festival on Thursday for 4 nights. Myself, hubby, our two children aged 2 and 4 and my 12 year old neice. We will be taking a 6 birth dome tent, table, chairs cooker etc. I've camped before but not for a few years and not with children, I'm starting to panic about what to take! I'd be grateful for any tips from those more experienced of camping with children.

toilet roll, food, cutlery, airbeds, pump, sleeping bags, light for nightime. take all the obvious thing. all the things after that you won't need and will take valuble space up in your car.

Fleece jumpers in case it gets chilly of an evening etc

No is a shorter word than yes, but it always takes longer to say.
