Two boys both 2 & 4. Have tents, chairs, sleeping bags, cooking gear. Will go somewhere with toilets as a start. Any gear, set-up, or entertainment advise for kids would be great.

Piggybacking here to ask if anybody’s done it with someone younger than 2? Thinking of taking my kid when they are ~14 or 15 months for a short car camp to test it out.
We took our youngest son camping regularly starting around one. He was still breastfeeding and in diapers… Actually, they both were the first time or three we went camping. THAT was a bit rough. We were into cloth diapers… But, ultimately decided that, while camping disposables were worth it.
I’d say that it’s easier with babies before they start moving around, and then with 3+ year olds. The in-between is a little harder to manage, but still doable. My advice would be to do it together with another couple of parents. More hands to cook, etc., while someone else looks after the kids. Also best to find a place without too many mosquitoes!
