The question of what a child needs to take to the camp worries many parents, although at one time they themselves also went on summer vacations to pioneer camps. We can say that no special requirements have appeared, they remain standard, although each camp has its own nuances that need to be clarified.
Usually a list of necessary things is attached to the voucher. Here is her and the certificate from the clinic must be put in a backpack or bag in the first place. Read the list and adjust it for your child's personality. If he is neat and reasonable enough, then he may need a little less change of shoes and clothes than indicated in the voucher. If he is prone to mischief, then you can put on a stock. Sew tags on all clothes, make a complete list and put it in a suitcase. This will help the child not forget at least half of what you gave him with you when leaving the camp. Make a tag on a suitcase or bag and tie it tightly so that it does not come off on a trip. Write the name and surname of the child on the tag. Put a few plastic bags with handles in his suitcase, in which you can put dirty things or take with you to the sea to wear on excursions. All the usual medicines that you may need in the camp will be required at the local first-aid post. You can put with you the child only those that he personally needs due to the presence of a particular disease, but do not forget to warn the counselors about this. But just in case, put a bactericidal patch, a few pieces, iodine (in pencils), cotton swabs. Shampoos are best given to a child in disposable packages, and soap - in a soap dish. It is better not to give expensive and new electronic devices or to agree that they can be deposited with the counselor. Ordinary sports equipment should also not be taken with you, so as not to overload the child. But here's a tracksuit, sneakers, swimsuit or swimming trunks - must be. The rubber slippers will come in handy in the pool. It is better to give him a few hats with him, they tend to get lost. For rainy and wet weather, which happens even in the south, put on a raincoat or light raincoat, waterproof boots.
