We have some great memories from visiting festivals with our son, naturally you’ll be anxious and questioning your sanity for even considering it - but with some good planning you’ll have an amazing time and be ready for anything! The practice run in the garden is great for working out what you need and what will be useful for making you all more comfortable. Key things to pack: 👕 Clothes for ALL weather. Imagine it’s 30C sunshine or torrential downpours - have it all ready. 🪭 A fan to keep them cool in the tent and out and about. 💡 Lights for the pram to make them easily seen at night. 🍼 Cold water sterilizing tablets and a container. We had a flask to boil water in the morning and use it to make a bottle up later in the day. ☀️ A sheet and pegs are priceless to pin between the pram and something else to make shade if you can’t find any. Wet flannels are great for cooling the baby down if it’s really hot. 🎧 Ear defenders to wear around any loud music.

Replying to @sambroadhurst50 He didnt cry AND he knew what was going on 😯 He brought the vibes all weekend 😆🙌🏻

Taking your child to a festival is such a great family experience. Most festivals are about celebrating music, arts, dance, diversity and so many wonderful things that children need to be exposed to. With opportunities to learn about different genres of music, have instrument lessons, make crafts, watch theatre, learn circus skills, meet people from all walks of life and spend some quality time together as a fam - why wouldn’t you 👀 Many festivals have dedicated family camping fields, which usually have the best and cleanest facilities. Many have specific kids fields with endless activities for them to enjoy. We are heading to our second of the summer in a few weeks time 🙌🏻

When they tell you you shouldnt take kids to festivals… 🫶🏼
