With less then 2 week to go until me
and Tilly head off to Brownie camp, I thought it would be nice to sit
down and pack with her so I can work out what I still need to get
her.
At Brownies we do encourage parents to pack with their girls so
that the girls can see what they are taking, as many of the girls
will unpack on the first day but then will be unable to recognise
their stuff a few days later. The last day is always spent waving
stuff around shouting 'who does this belong to'! we have a large pile
of tea towels from previous years that are still unclaimed!
At first Tilly was really excited, she
was reading out the kit list and picking out what she wanted to take.
Quite soon we realised everything isn't going to fit into the
suitcase so she is going to take her suitcase and put some of her
bits in mine!
After we had finished we decided to get
the bus to a local town with more shops as there was still some bits
we needed and we thought it would be nice to meet mum after work.
As soon as we arrived we headed for
Primark as mum had brought us a gift card each and Tilly was excited
to buy some bits herself. After getting the bits we needed, we headed
to some other shops getting Tilly some other bits including some
armbands for when we go swimming.
We then went to get Tilly some
slippers. Tilly was really disappointed that the minion slippers she
found where too small but luckily she found some paw patrol slippers
that she liked and I liked because they were in the sale!
We were able to get everything we
needed so it was I feel today was a success and although when we
arrived it was raining, it soon brighten up. So we met mum for lunch
and headed home to pack the last bits.
This has now got Tilly all excited as
now she knows Brownie camp is soon. Now we just need to hope that mum
doesn't need the suitcase in the next week!
