My Adventure:
First camping trip with our 8-month-old son, along with another couple and two kids. I thought we were in for a real challenge but it turns out it was a lot of fun camping with a baby. The billy was packed to sterilise all the bottles!!
The days that were beautiful and sunny were spent going for walks and lying around relaxing on a picnic rug (babies love being outside). We had a bit of rain, which is why we decided to get a 12 man tent for the 3 of us. Glad we had the luxury, that way we had the middle room for a lounge room you could say. I strongly believe if you are going to go camping you may as well be comfortable!!! No one was complaining how big it was then! (They used our tent for shelter).
A Coleman storage cupboard is great for being organised and knowing where everything is with a little one. Another great investment was the toilet/shower change tent, great for us and a baby bath fits perfect inside.Glenbrook national park is a perfect place to relax and enjoy the outdoors!
