Tinkergarten Leaders’ Summer Gear List


Camp Tinkergarten is off and running and we are so excited for a summer full of delicious, muddy, sunny outdoor fun.


With kids comes gear, and we asked our thousands of Tinkergarten leaders for the items that they can’t do summer without, from the perfect sun hat to the best sunscreen to tick protection and more. Getting outside to play might be the most important thing we can do for our kids this summer.


Here are some suggestions for maximizing safety and fun. Read about each item below or check them out — all in one place — in the Summer Gear Favorites section of our Camp Tinkergarten Store.
