Summer is a wonderful season of fun, sun, and relaxation. But, as a mom, you also know that it can be a busy time with kids out of school and the need to keep them fed with countless snacks and entertained on top of that! Here are some summer must haves to help you stay cool, organized, and stylish.
Sun Protection
Protecting yourself and your kids from the sun is a top priority. Invest in a good sunscreen that is safe, effective and kid-friendly. Also, consider getting stylish sun hats for both you and your children. They not only provide extra protection, but also make a fashion statement.
Reusable Water Bottles
Hydration is key during the hot summer months. Reusable water bottles are not only eco-friendly, but also help you save money and stay hydrated. Look for ones that are durable, easy to clean and keep your drinks cool.
Portable and Healthy Snacks
Having a stash of healthy snacks on hand is a lifesaver when you’re on the go. Consider packable fruits like apples or bananas, hemp bars, moon fruit and trail mixes.
Clean Hands
I hate giving the kids snacks when their hands are filthy! In comes Handzies Soap + Water Wipes to save the day! They are the best on the go wipes that I have found!
Beach/Pool Essentials
A good beach bag is a must for any mom. Look for one that’s large enough to fit all your essentials, yet comfortable to carry. Don’t forget to pack swimming suits, towels, baby towels, pool toys, and of course, a safety kit from Keep Going First Aid.
Comfortable Clothing and Footwear
Whether you’re hitting the beach or exploring a new city, comfortable footwear is a must. Consider investing in a pair of stylish yet comfortable sandals. Additionally, having comfortable clothing will help you beat the summer heat. The PXG summer line is my GO-TO for the hot summer days! I also love my joggers once I’ve showered and am ready to relax!
Time-Saving Tools
Consider time-saving tools like a slow cooker for quick and easy summer meals. It will give you more time to spend with your kids.
