PSA: My kids' sock system saved our last camping trip

We color-code each kid's socks so nobody fights over whose is whose. It sounds silly but it PREVENTS so many morning arguments when you're packing up camp.

Man, color coded socks sound way more organized than my entire life. I mean my kids would probably lose the socks anyway and just start arguing about whose color is better. At least you're not out there fighting over wet socks while a raccoon steals your breakfast, idk maybe it's just me but that's next level camping prep.

But how often do socks actually cause major fights? Color coding seems like a lot of effort for a minor issue. If your kids are that worked up over socks, maybe camping isn't the relaxing break you think it is. I've been on trips where we just grabbed whatever socks were dry and it was fine. This whole system feels like solving a problem that doesn't really exist.
