Packing for toddlers

What clothes wise would you pack for toddlers for a week away on a beach holiday? Wondered as I always pack to little or to much!

Depends if you will have a washing machine or not.

If not - 7 t shirts and 4-7 pairs of shorts/leggings (depending on how messy your child is), 7 pairs of pants, 1 jumper or hoody, 1 waterproof coat, rash tops and swim shorts (we have 2 sets), pyjamas. Sun hat. We have a towelling poncho thing for the beach too, and jelly shoes/flip flops.

If you have a washing machine I reckon you can cut down a little bit.

Pretty much as above but would throw in also smarter clothes for the evening (dresses for girls and linen trousers or smart shorts and tops for boys

I personally would go for at least 10 T-Shirts, DD was a messy one and we had a washing machine. It may be me but I hate seeing children wearing stained clothes.

For coat I would take a pack-a-mac style one with a hoody.

I have a DS aged 2 and I am taking 10 tops/shorts (no real dressy stuff) as he's bound to spill food stuff on himself. Also 2 all in one swimwear (tops and bottoms) and 2 swimming bermudas. 3 hats (he looses them), 2 sunglasses (he looses them), sandals, sandshoes and beach shoes and 2 towelling robes. And of course 2 hoodies.
