It is that time of the year again when our kids are giddy with excitement on the prospect of going away on a school planned trip.  The school provides you with a packing list while at the same time warns that the packed bag that the children bring with them needs to be manageable for them to lug around while on the trip.  So... they need lots but it all needs to get into a small bag.  What an easy task, right? The agony typically starts the night before when we start to help our kids prepare for their trip.  Our kids are trembling with excitement while our nerves are fraught with tension and apprehension; we battle with anticipated feelings of missing them and practicality as we guide them into making the right choices in selecting the items to pack for their trip.  Now... how do we fit everything in the suitably-sized luggage / carrier for their school trip? One of the items on the list is a towel.  Well, that's great information.  After all, we understand that our kids will need a towel for their baths which can also double up as a...
(1) sarong for changing out of their swimmers,
(2) pillow if they are sleeping in tents
(3) bed throw over cots
(4) blanket on their journey

A towel is definitely useful.  Is there space for one?  These illustrations show the thought process that went into packing a towel for my Grade 2's trip to Malaysia.  We had space in his carrier for his turkish towel as it was light weight and packed compactly.  This super soft and quick dry towel fulfills all the functionalities outlined above and it completed our check list of items to pack.  One happy camper off to his school trip with a well packed bag that was easy to tote.  He even managed to squeeze in a pack of Uno cards!

P.S. When he returned from his trip, his towel was dry and did not have any sand residue on it.  Luckily it looked used or I would have had to check if my son took any showers while he was away!
