Create Your Own Personalized Camping Gear With a Cute Packing Checklist

Posted February 28, 2015

Update: Hi there! I recently gave this personalized packing list a fresh new look. If you’re interested you can print it for free right here. But if you still love the original, then go on and keep using it all you want!

I think it's a fact that every camping blog needs a printable camping checklist.  Right?  After listening to this week’s RV Family Travel Atlas podcast I was inspired to create a list that can be personalized to what you need.  Diapers?  Shaving cream?  Hiking boots?  Every family is different, so every family needs a different list.

The best part about this list is the ability to use it for more than just packing:

  • A don't forget list

  • Inventory list

  • Need to purchase list

  • Need to replace list

  • Cut it up and assign older kids to assist with packing

  • Keep it close during your camping trip when you realize you need something for next time

  • Print on card stock, laminate, and have a reusable checklist with everything YOU need for every camping trip

  • After you return from camping fill it out and keep it with your camping equipment so you know what you have for next time

  • We also used it as a teaching opportunity to have our 1st grader fill out what he thinks you need on a camping trip - marshmallows of course!

    You can download and print your own gear checklist HERE.

    Thank you for visiting Campfire Travelers!  I hope this list helps keep you a little more organized this summer.


We have even more printables!
