18 GENERAL CAMPING: Three things that we did that were helpful for our camping trip with 6mo old were:

- crib netting over portable playpen to keep mesquitos (sp?) off him
while we were eating.
- I sewed part of an unfolded diaper into his cap to shade his neck and
shoulders (this was very important since we were skiing and on a boat
part of the day)
- long sleve and leg cotton outfits. Like onesies only with long sleve
and legs. These were good to keep sun and mesquitos off.

Also don't forget the obvious: sunscreen that is no-more-tears for kids
and lifejacket if you are going near water.
