We’re getting into the middle of summer but there’s still plenty of time to pack up your family and head out camping. We’re not big campers and honestly my husband hates going but I’ve found some great ways to make camping easier and more enjoyable for all of us!

I forgot to snap a picture of mine but I had these drawer loaded up in the back of my car! This was the second year I’ve done this because I love it so much! It’s easy to find everything without having to dig through it all. I put our most commonly used items in the top drawer (sanitizer, flash lights, matches, etc) I but our plastic utensils, plates, table cloth and cups in the second one and our bottom one had all our non-perishable items like gram crackers, marshmallows, chips and more.

To go along with the last one I also packed our clothing in a clear container. I was able to pack all 3 kids stuff in one with each having their own section. It was easy for them to find their own stuff and we you could see exactly what was inside.
