Much like the winter safety kit I keep it in my vehicle year round now. I added quite a bit to my Summer kit vs what my winter kit had. I have 2 totes in my truck. One in the bed and one in the cab, but you can keep both in your trunk or back seat or what ever you choose to do. This just works best for me. Also a "diaper bag" honestly I only use it when we go to the zoo, library, museums or something like that.
ok so for my first tote inside the truck! ( I am a Target mom, but you can get this stuff anywhere you like and adjust to the age of your kids too.)
*a tote ( the one I have in the cab is clear)
*Baby wipes ( I don't care how old your kid is they are a mothers Best friend!)
*take and toss cups ( I have sippy and straw kind)
*Few snacks things will not melt. ( bars, cereals, crackers ect)
*I have a kiddo potty training so a change of shorts and undies with a wet bag or can use ziplock too.
*So I have some meds, children's Tylenol, Motrin, allergy med, adult Tylenol, Itch cream
*Gold bond powder (this is for when we go swimming or to the beach, put on kids feet to dry them get sand off.)
*1/2 Package of diapers if your kiddo has slowed down growing.
*Disposable changing pads (also great for when kiddo spills drink in their car seat.)
*Silica gel packets ( will explain at the end)
*WATER! I have 2 gallons and then a case of bottles!
*Juice boxes ( this can be in the cab box if youd like.
*snacks ( can never have to many crackers and gold fish with kids)
*small sandwich bags ( we like to go on hikes and collect rocks and other cool things)
*Sun screan
* bug spray
*Disinfectant wipes
*Matches (I have the striker taped in place and not by the matches my luck its strike its self)
*FIRST AID KIT. This is a must for every vehicle small or big!
Last thing for the trunk is the Potty can! Now I grew up where the next bath room was good 2 hours away so we had a coffee can with TP and garbage bags to use.
*Cleaned coffee can
*store plastic bags ( this is for when kiddo has to poop on the side of the road)
*Toilet paper or toilet wipes
and Silica gel pack.
Okay, now to explain the Silica gel packs, they are my best friend since moving down south where it is stupid humid. Put them in your Diaper bag, your purse, where every you have a product that could get gross from humidity. they will keep diapers dry and from getting crispy.
A few items i have since added are 4 candles in votive, and a flashlight.
So this is my Summer adventure Kit! I hope this helps you get started on what you need in yours.
Stay safe and have fun this summer!
