Hello all, am a long time MNer but my first time on the camping board - DH loves camping, I'm a bit of a wimp.
Used to go to festivals all the time before children but have decided this is the year to take the nippers for the first time. DS1 is nearly 6, DS2 is 3 years old, and we're going to Camp Bestival this August (staying in the Camping Plus bit). Now it's only a month away I'm shitting myself getting a bit anxious and feeling the need to write lists and get organised.
Other than the obvious things like tent / sleeping bags / table / kind of stuff what do I need for children at a festival? What do I need to know about Camp Bestival in particular? What should and shouldn't I take? Do we hire a trolley to haul the kids about it after dark or is it a pain in the arse? Do we need to take food or is the food there good quality and picky bastard child-friendly?
All and any advice very welcome, I'm sort of looking forward to it but getting a bit panicky and really want to feel totally prepared so I can just relax and enjoy it! Thank you!
