On top of all the above
We will also take a mountain of food
In particular snacks
Adventures make us hungry!
I am so looking forward to exploring Bluestone
We plan to swim as early as we can every morning
Then head off site to explore
Returning mid afternoon to enjoy what Bluestone has to offer
We want to try out all the play areas
The nature trail
Spend some time at Camp Smokey
But we really want to get out to Tenby
Get a boat to Caldey Island
And escape to Freshwater West Beach
In the hope of finding Dobby!
With four children
All their belongings
And a list of places to explore
We have to be very careful not to lose things along the way
One simple solution is to label EVERYTHING
Especially shoes that might be removed for softplay
Glasses
William is forever losing his glasses
Books
Water bottles
We also use water resistant kids labels
On our armbands and goggles
If going to a busy pool
I love a label
And my motto is
Especially when far away from home
What do you label when home and away?
If you are in need of labels
Why not check out Sticker You
For custom stickers, labels and more
I am off to make a start on my packing!
This is a collaborative post
Good luck with the packing and have a wonderful break away. It sounds really idyllic. xxx
Ahh you’re going to Bluestone that’s fab! You’re all going to have the best time. I look forward to reading about it. These stickers and labels sound great, I need to get a load for my two before September, I’ll check them out.

Quite a packing list and ideas of what you want to do! I have never been to Bluestone but I love Wales and I bet it will be lovely at the moment
Enjoy your holiday
