I've lost count of how many Rumpl blankets I own. They are so handy to have. Original style is smooth to the touch with beautiful prints. I got the entire set of National Park blankets from the original range and then just couldn't justify buying mor...
Original Puffy Outdoor Blankets
Extra cozy version of the Rumpl. Fuzzy lining makes the kids steal it. It does pick up random things like twigs, so probably better for indoor use. Also more bulky.
Sherpa Puffy Blanket
Down version of Rumpl is more compact, more smooth to the touch. I could go either way, but this is more packable.
Down Puffy Blankets
Thin, packable, fast drying towel. Form factor is a bit on the long side, convenient to have around if you feel like jumping in a lake at any given point.
Everywhere Towels | The Ultimate Travel ... - Rumpl
Bought these when they first launched. I typically have four of them in a pack in the back of the car for whatever comes our way. A little bit on the heavier side, but much more compact than other fold up chairs, also somewhat sturdy, but sometimes c...
CLIQ Chair
Love these little lanterns. I like the smaller one with the multiple colors better (never found that I needed to charge my phone with the bigger one). Daughter loves putting it on color change mode. Compact for travel anywhere and solar charging is h...
LuminAID
Super handy air pump to get that air mattress up and running quickly. Also has a deflate function. Compact and charge holds well.
Flextail air pump
After looking at RVs, trailers, tents, and every other option to make camping tolerable, ended up with a rooftop tent. Easy to open / close (if you are tall). Best for in and out camping as once it is up, you won't be able to drive anywhere. Holds up...
iKamper Skycamp 2.0
Way better than the mattress that comes with the tent. Memory foam with the added air mattress. It takes some time to inflate / deflate, but worth the extra comfort.
iKamper air mattress
Super convenient way to keep bugs away, and doesn't require spraying yourself down…used them for a trip to SE Asia and minimized bites for me and the littles. Just need to remember to remove them before doing laundry.
Mosquito Guard 60 Pack Repellent Stickers
Handy dandy little device to keep the bugs away. I love the compact design.
Flextail Tiny Repel 3-1 Mosquito Repellent
I have basically every size of Yeti cup, this is my favorite. Size is great and love that it is stackable (though the lids have to be stored separately). Dishwasher friendly. Love the customizable option, too. Use these all day.
Yeti Rambler 16 oz Stackable Cup
Really handy to have when you need a power boost. I would go with the higher power (also have the 600 and it didn't have enough oomph to charge iPads). It is a bit bulky, though.
Jackery Explorer 1000 Portable Power Station
This is a good size for car camping. Won't take up too much trunk space, but still good capacity to cover a couple days of food / drinks for a small group. When sealed properly, it works super well. I freeze bottles of water to save space.
Yeti Tundra® 35 Hard Cooler
Our go to sunscreen since the kiddos were super little. Smells good, effective, non-toxic.
Thinkbaby and Thinksport Sunscreen
Super handy fire starters for camping. We used to struggle a bit with getting the fire started. Extra frustrating when there is a little one eager for her roasted marshmallow. This makes it way easier.
