What to pack (and what to leave home)

The cubby list that actually gets used — clothes, bottles, lovies, and the extras that only add clutter.

Keep here, not in the car

A full change of clothes, more if we are toilet learning. A jacket or sweater. Wipes. Two bibs. Weather gear. A small comfort item for rest.

Infants: two bottles, formula or labeled breast milk, baby food, a pacifier if they use one. Label everything. Mornings go easier when the bag already lives in the cubby.

Leave the toy box at home

We have plenty of toys here. Please leave toys from home at home — children might not want to share, and that can start a hard moment.

Clothes should be allowed to get messy. Paint and lunch will find them. Fancy outfits spend the day worrying.
