Hi Grandkids!
I am looking forward to getting to see you sometime this summer!
Bring a sleeping bag if you have one, and if you have a special pillow, it is OK to bring it. But I do have extras, if you don't require a special pillow.
Bring your toothbrush, a hairbrush, and a light jacket or long sleeved shirt for wearing on cooler nights. BRING IT! If you aren't cold, you won't be forced to wear it.
You will need at least one pair of actual shoes. Feel free to bring an additional pair of footwear. (Flip flops and sandals are not suitable for hiking. Bring a pair of shoes.)
I have a washing machine, so you don't have to bring a whole bunch of clothes. Maybe three to five changes, including socks and underwear. I suggest that at least one of these changes of clothes includes a pair of pants , for cooler evenings. EDIT: The clothes you bring need to fit. They need to be seasonally appropriate. ONE long sleeved shirt or jacket is good. The temperatures here are pretty warm, so you do NOT need many long sleeved tops.
If you wear pajamas or nightgowns, you really won't need more than one set. (Unless you wet the bed!) So, if one set isn't enough, two ought to be. You don't need to bring five nightgowns!
A swimsuit. We may go swimming. Or, we may not. But the swimsuit is just in case. (Another item you don't need to bring more than one!)
You may bring an electronic device- but for those under 15 years of age, use will be restricted. Don't forget your charging cables if you DO bring something.
You may bring a toy or two if you want to. Edit: You do NOT need two BAGS of toys. Leave fragile toys at home, please.
So, what WILL you get to do here?
We have 30 acres, mostly woods. Explore. Climb. I have chickens that get fed, and shut away at night. I have a great big garden... so depending on the timing of your visit, you may get to help pick vegetables. We may get to go to the library.
Possibly: Go fishing. Make jelly. Have a bonfire. Visit a Park. Have Ice cream. Create something. Star Time. Catch lightening bugs. Camp out. Go hiking.
Not everyone will get to do exactly the same things. But we should have a lot of fun!
Can't wait to see you!
Love, CowGranny
