Swim 💦
Splish and splash! Our favorite ways to stay cool in the summertime.
I think a great long sleeve one piece is essential for summer. It helps keep the skin protected and the fun colors and patterns make it easy for kids to want to wear.

This is such a fun bright color and the pattern is so modern yet retro. I purchased this for my 7 year old and she looks so cool in it.

You can't beat the price of these. My girls (9 & 7) love them and they don't care they are a dupe for the crocs. They work just as well and the colors are really fun

You have to protect your skin, 100%. I love this brand because it goes on easy and isn't too sticky.

Perfect for our beach trip. My kids can collect their own shells and have a spot for them to hold them. Also I can totally see my son using this for some small cars or trucks. I love the fun colors too.

From beach towels to blankets, sunscreen and coverups I love the options from this brand. So cute, very beachy and functional which is the most important!

My middle child must be pure sugar because early in the summer she has no joke over 15 bites on her leg. I finally got some sense in me and bought these braclets. They smell great and so far they've worked wonders. Easy for kids to wear and its a non-invasive way to keep those pesky b...
