Mini Vanilla Boys Camper Van Pyjamas

What we liked about Camp Bestival.

The Kids Field - It's feels pretty safe and contained so you can relax with out stressing about loosing them in the crowd.

The kids disco tent is a must as there are loads of fancy dress outfits to try on. Cue many a funny photo with the kids dressing Dad in some crazy get ups!!

Brilliant Celebrity line up, forget who is playing on the Main Stage who can forget Mr Tumbles' appearance last year.

This year there is going to a Circus there too.

Our top tip for going to a Festival with the Kids

Go with the flow - Don't worry about bed times, (as excited as you might be for the kids to show off their new Mini Vanilla PJ's!!) Just go with it and let them party till they drop....

Let the kids fall asleep in their Mini Vanilla Pyjamas in a Radio Flyer

Do take one of those fab wheelie trollies or a pushchair for them to collapes in and then you can party till you drop..well till you are ready to stagger your dancing feet back to your camp bed that is.

Our Favourite Camp Bestival moment

I think it was getting up early... (the joy of going to a festival with kids...!!).

It was a really warm sunny morning. The only people up, funnily enough were those with very small children. We headed over to the breakfast stalls, (you can get really good quality organic breakfasts). Made friends with fellow campers and then headed to the Kids field. As it was so early there was only a few people there, so kids could run around freely and play on everything, while we sat on a haystack and drank coffee in the early morning sunshine gazing at the beautiful Lulworth Castle and the sea in the distance.
