When preparing your child for a day at beach camp, ensure they have these essential tangible items to enhance their experience:

1. Beach Towels: Pack a few quick-drying, lightweight beach towels for drying off after swimming and lounging on the sand.
   
2. Swimsuits: Ensure your child has at least two swimsuits to allow for drying time between swims.
   
3. Flip-Flops or Water Shoes: Provide comfortable, waterproof footwear for walking on the beach and in the water.
   
4. Sun Hat: Protect your child from the sun's rays with a wide-brimmed sun hat.
   
5. Sunglasses: Invest in a sturdy pair of sunglasses with UV protection to shield your child's eyes from the sun.
   
6. Beach Bag: Pack a durable beach bag to carry essentials like sunscreen, water, and snacks while exploring the shore.
   
7. Reusable Water Bottle: Keep your child hydrated with a reusable, spill-proof water bottle designed for outdoor activities.
   
8. Insect Repellent: If your beach camp is near wooded areas, bring insect repellent to ward off pesky bugs during outdoor activities.
   
9. Beach Toys (Optional): While we provide a selection of fun beach toys at camp, campers are welcome to bring their own if they have personal favorites they'd like to enjoy on the beach.
   

These tangible items will ensure your child is well-equipped for their day camp adventure at the beach.
