does anyone have a trip checklist?

[finallydvc08]

Hi.

We are a family of 2 adults and 3 kids (8 y.o., 5 y.o., 3 y.o.). We are leaving for the Villas at Wilderness Lodge in less than a month.

Does anyone have a checklist that they use for packing a trip in this season? I am also interested in a checklist that some may use when they are staying in a DVC unit.

TIA!

Ypu beat me to it. I use the one from Mousesavers. It almost has a little too much stuff on it, but it covers all scenarios and you definitely won't forget anything!

My goodness! I only looked at the mousesavers one, but I *think* it said "kitchen sink" somewhere on there.

In all honesty, I did pack many of the odds and ends that they listed such as moleskin, a small flashlight, and a pool ring float for DD.

I'm glad you remembered the swim ring! On a recent trip, I encountered a family that "couldn't find" one of their 2 year old DD's inflatable arm bands. They put the poor little thing in the hotel pool with one band (or wing as my kids used to call them). The child could not control her balance with one band and fell face first into the water - a totally traumatic experience for the child! Pretty scary for everyone else poolside too - the child could have been in real trouble if someone didn't scoop her out of the water quickly! Did I mention that the same family lost one child to drowning a few years ago???

Boy did I want to shake some sense into the parents. There's a reason why arm floats are sold in pairs!!!!

The Mousesavers list great! I just printed it out for my binder.
