Taking the whole family out to Yellowstone area for a week. Never been camping with kids before so I'm prepping like crazy. Got a list going of everything we need from the tent situation down to snacks. Anyone done this with young kids? What did you wish you brought or left behind?
That's going to be an amazing trip. Pro tip: test all your gear in the backyard first if you haven't camped before. Saved me a lot of headaches on our first family camping adventure.
Yellowstone is incredible with the family! Pack way more snacks than you think you need and don't stress the list too much. The kids will have a blast no matter what.
Yellowstone is incredible for a first camping trip with kids. The scenery will blow their minds. Just pack way more snacks than you think you need and bring wet wipes for literally everything.
This is going to be amazing. Fair warning though, the bathroom situation with multiple kids in nature is its own special kind of chaos. But totally worth it.
That sounds amazing man. Week long trip is ambitious for a first time but if you plan it right the kids will remember it forever. What's your camping style, RV or tents?

Pro tip from someone who's done this with young kids: bring a portable speaker and some familiar music. Game changer for campfire time and helps settle everyone down at night.
