I just bought a baggallini messanger bag as per the many recommendations on here. I'm trying to figure out exactly what i shoud bring to the parks every day that will actually fit into my bag. I want the necessities, but don't want to overpack. In November i'll have a 5 year old and an almost three year old (potty trained).
Here is what i think i should bring, but it seems like way too much stuff to fit in the bag!
Coin purse (coins for penny press, money, license, park passes, room card, credit card)
Cell phone
Two empty take and toss sippy cups to fill throughout the day
Small pack wipes
Glow necklaces/bracelets
Ponchos (cheapo dollar store ones)
Ziplocks (Two large and two small)
Water bottle (to refill throughout the day)
Table cloth (vinyl easily folds, for sitting on to wait for parades and to use as a cover for my double stroller if it rains.)
Index Cards (a couple for journaling for scrapbooking)
Autograph Books (one for each kid)
Sharpies (two)
Snacks (fruit gummy snacks, lollies, nerds, crackers...etc. Two snacks per kid per day)
Bathing suits for kids
Change of clothes for kids
Clip on sunscreen
Clip on hand sanitizer
Digital Camera, memory cards, extra battery
Doesn't that sound like too much? What could/should i cut out? Should i add anything? I'm thinking that once i get to the park i'd take out the table cloth and ponchos and put them in the stroller storage. Do i need to bring bathing suits to the dry parks? Or just a change of clothes?
