We suggest that each child brings the following items when they come to Seedrioru Summer camp. We’ve also got a handy checklist below which you can use to make sure that you’ve got everything packed. We prefer that younger children pack their items in suticases instead of duffel bags, so it’s easier for them to keep their stuff organized.**Suitcases preferred instead of duffel bags for mudilased and väiksed poisid/tüdrukud.**
Tere Vanemad! Parents!! Kids!
Here are a few things to keep in mind when preparing for your summer at camp:
- Camp is a busy & active place, remember to pack clothing that you don’t mind getting wet and dirty.
- Label all of your clothing (socks included!) and equipment, and ensure that your child is aware of what you are sending with them to camp.
- Mail is a lot of fun to receive! Send your child to camp with some pre- addressed envelopes so that they can easily send letters back home. Also care packages and regular mail are a wonderful surprise to get at camp. Make sure that you are sending things that are camp friendly and that can be used at camp. Please refrain from junkfood.
- Hats, running shoes and sunscreen are really important to help protect your child from the sun.
- Send a water bottle and remind your child to stay hydrated by drinking lots of water. We always have drinking water available and will remind children to fill up their bottles and drink water.
- Please check the “Lost & Found” when you arrive to find stuff you left behind last year and check again before you leave to make sure you don’t leave anything behind!
