First family holiday abroad - help me pack!

We're off to south of France and this will be the first time the dcs have been abroad (8&6) and first time I've left the country since I was pregnant with ds!

I'm having a bit of a pre-holiday flap about what to pack.

We're flying so limited to 20kg x2 and then staying on camp site for a week. We aren't hiring a car as everything we need should be within walking distance.

Can anyone help?

Thanks! Wine

Assuming it is SE of France which is hot? Check campsite's rules on boys'/mens' trunks if appropriate. Many campsites require lovely flattering speedos! Otherwise casual is the way forward shorts, tops and a couple of dresses. Suncream is cheaper here. Do you need to take eddying and towels?

Medication (paracetamol etc, immodium) makes life easier if you have it rather than trying to find a pharmacist/doctor.

We're hiring linen packs so only need beach towels.
Medicines will be packed - asthma and hay fever esp

I think dh will be ok with trunks, pics on website show men in trunks. He won't buy any speedos unless he really has to! 😂

We're flying to Perpignan so SW really. Forecast looks warm but not unbearable. 😄
