My family & I plan to arrive at the gathering sometime during the start of the final week of June. I really want to be involved with set up & camp / kitchen during this gathering and plan to be centered in Kiddie Village. Anyone planning to be there around this time? What needs to be done, brought in, etc.? I would like to know what is most needed / helpful for us to bring so to help contribute w/ food, fun, shelter, etc. Would love to touch base with others planning to be centered in Kiddie Village.

If I had to guess I bet good strong rope is a prized item at kiddie village so they can make all sorts of swings. Cant have too many swings can ya?

Mike…
rope is always kewl ,,, extra tarp or tents for supplies etc if one has them,,,, twine n bungis are also big helpers,,, ,,, when we know kidlings are round n have to have a kiddie setting,,, we generally try n have crayons markersm,,, poster board ,glittery stuff n paints,,,, as far as food we like to try n play snackmaster at times,,,, crackers, pnut butter, jelly,,, dried fruits, trail mix that kids can assemble there on site,… no bake cookie ingredients are good too,,,, some r actually pretty health n real easy to adapt to whatever folks enjoy,,,, n kids like helpin,,,,.. have also seen folks just bring in extra ol clothes n dressup stuff ,,, the lil girls seem to love turnin them selvesinto lil fairies n such… i generally try n keep things light n simple to avoid making several vehicle trips… and a big ol sack of kiddie things can be crammed into something pretty little and easy to traipse round with..

rope is good. Bungee cords too. I keep thinking about mosquito / fly netting for the kitchen and a privacy shelter for the shitter. My five year old is quite concerned about privacy for the shitter so we are bringing along a covered shelter that tarps or sheets, etc can hang from as privacy walls. If someone else has already built something for it then the cover will make a nice little play / sit area with shade.
The sheltered shitter is an awesoem idea,,, my daughters concerned with privacy too,,Think ill have to bring some extra tarps!!
a folding chair with a toilet seat rigged on it is great for the little ones,, a lot less frightning than squating over a slit trench..

little ones hell?/ we have one..

luv n lite

make your own cirtonella… essential oils of eucolyptus and lemon, mix inna spray bottle w/water.

say no to DEET. SUNSCREEN can’t emphasize that enough. Emergen-C drink mix…the natural alternative to gatorade and packs in like *BUTTA*
another great idea with the folding chair,,, I think Im definetly gonna do that,, i think my daughter will be way less freaked out that way

Lmao Hahaha ,,, Isnt it funny that kids always say the best stuff just in time to embarrass the hell outta ya
Howdy all

Another great idea (which I did at my first gathering)

Take a 5 gal bucket with lid (kind like they put donut icing in)
A porto pottie seat (like kind they have to sit on toilet with adustable attatchments) used for handi-capped etc/

Place the seat over the bucket (which fits beautifully)
Make sure to put in sanitize stuff/ an a bit of water first
After use/ take off seat/ put on lid/
Great for those little ones…an first timers like me

Take to your shitter/ dump/ cover/ ashes or whatever

Little tent works great/ with upper little window flaps/
Don’t forget …tissue…jugs of water/for toilet/ little battery
light is nice too.

He heh he I’m spoiled LOL
Kiddie Village has so much variety going on! I would say for your own most rewarding experience, bring what you enjoy! If you’re into food and prep, bring snacks or spices…If you’re artistic, those kinds of things go over like crazy! My littlest last year made crowns, capes and majic wands with sticks and curly ribbons and one is still on the dashboard of my car.

Hi folks,At our first gatherings we came in with garden carts full of tents,cots,camp beds,sleeping bags,hammocks,camp furniture,shower shelter,porta potti,marine coolers,camp stove/oven,ect.Folks called me the house.Today I pull it all in on one used golf cart and shit in the tent on a piece of paper.
Me and my wife attended our first gathering last year in WV. We left the kids at home last year and took some lame ass baboylns that didn’t appericate it at all. So this year where taking some cats we know will enjoy it; our kiddies. So lots of rope and maybe a homemade potty huh? Anyone else coming up from AZ to CO. Last year I saw a very cool wrap like thing somebodey was using to carry his son on his back does anybody know how to make this???
In my experience, the 5 gal bucket thing has a fatal flaw. The inside of the buckets gets all shitty, ’cause no one scrubs them, and no one wants to pack out a shitty 5 gal bucket with the bottom cut out when they break camp, so they leave it for the clean up crew, and if that happens to be me, I pick the thing up with a really long stick and take it to a hot fire. I figger the plastic fumes will sterilize the bacteria…
Gotta agree with Turn Up on the fatal flaw; besides kiddos learn how to use the shitters pretty fast, especially if their parents are using them & most of the time the Kiddie Villiage shitters are built with little ones in mind. Course, for girls, it’s a easier if they wear dresses or skirts (big girls & little girls!)
I printed out a copy of the rainbow mini manual (good homeschooling reading practice for the kids … hee hee hee) and under shitter inf. it states that the shitter is ONLY for shitting, not urinating. I never knew this. Just an interesting, odd tid bit of inf. to toss out there. I’ve saved rinsed out plastic orange juice & milk jugs (1/2 gallon size) for latrine use at night. Funny how body functions can be some a topic, eh?! hee hee.

Anyone here heading to the alternative gathering in Missouri? Anyone been to it before? If so, what is your take on the location & experience? We decided, with a bit of sadness, to attend the alternative instead. It is closer & flatter … my hubby has a bum knee and is real concerned about hiking in CO. I was pretty sad about the decision at first, however it is still family & we will less likely experience knee complications.
