We love the beach and with kids it’s important to prepare a lot ahead of time. Over the years we have learned some tips and tricks that I thought I’d share with you!

#1

A beach bag that is easy to hold, can handle the sand and cleans up easily.

#2

Sunscreen…a lot and in different types like spray, lotion and cream.

#3

A beach blanket like this Mer-Sea blanket which has little pockets on it so you can fill it with sand so it won’t blow away…genius!!

#4

Chairs and an umbrella. This way you can sit in the sand and enjoy the shade if you’d like.

#5

A cooler bag with lots of drinks and snacks like veggies and fruit!
