I keep two of these on our stroller, one facing me and one facing my son. One of my favorite outdoor essentials, especially on hot days.

This stroller is great for getting outside because it handles rough terrain really well… even Florida sugar sand! One of my favorite things for walks and exploring with a toddler.

I love this lotion because I don’t have to spray bug spray all over my toddler. It goes on easily, works well for us, and is way less annoying to apply.

These are my go-to hiking boots for getting outside. Comfortable, waterproof, and cute enough that I actually want to wear them.

I lose sunglasses constantly, so I wanted a pair that was inexpensive but still good. I ended up loving these, and they’ve lasted me almost two years.

My toddler loves taking his sunglasses off and throwing them, so the strap on these is a lifesaver. They stay on way better while we’re out exploring.

Hear me out 😂 If you’re out in the woods long enough, this is one of those things you’ll be glad you packed. Especially if you’ve ever tried to squat and nearly fallen into a cactus… yes, that happened.

Not much more to say other than… I absolutely LOVE my “mama” hat! I love the weathered look and the simplicity of it. Helps keep the sun out of my eyes too.

I couldn’t find the exact bucket hat my son has because they were handed down to me from my sister-in-law, but these are almost identical! Adjustable and my son doesn’t try to take them off

I use the stick version of this sunscreen for my son’s face, neck, and his ears! He even grabs it and puts it on himself, which is super cute
