What to pack for 3yo?!

We go on our first AI holiday on Tuesday for a week.

I appear to be packing the full contents of my daughters wardrobe though!

How many things do I really need to pack? She is mainly dry, but has serious FOMO so will have accidents despite us encouraging her to go toilet, and even though I imagine most of the day we will be in swimsuits I still seem to be packing a million knickers.

I am taking some bits so I can hand-wash items, and there is a laundrette on site but I imagine very costly

How many shorts/leggings and knickers should I be packing for a week away?!

I have always factored a load (or 2) of laundry into my holiday plans with small children. Yes the laundrettes can be expensive but I usually pack a few washing pods from home to save that money.
It saves worrying that I have enough of everything, saves packing space and brain space

My DD’s list for a week’s pool/beach somewhere hot would be:

2 t shirts
2 shorts/skirts
2 sundresses
1 cardi
1 hoodie
Sandals
Flip flops
2 swimming costumes
Sun hat
Sun glasses
1 night dress
1 pair of knickers for each day, + 1 for good luck!

Hair clips and 2 scrunchies/bobbles

Body wash
Shampoo
Sun cream
Calpol

Arm bands
Rubber ring
Book of bedtime stories
Comforter
Sticker book

Take a few colour-catchers for the laundrette so you can put everything together in one wash.
