Summer is in full swing here in Alexandria, and so is life! Not sure if you’ve tried to book a beach house lately, but every town near us is sold out! Vacations are back, and 529 has everything you need for the kids to be fashionable while having fun in the sun and to keep them busy while in the car on a road trip or at dinner.

Our current obsession is our new trucker hat line from women-owned Wild Child Hat Co. From dinos to sunsets, keep them safe from the sun’s rays in style!

Our newest delivery from Ooly is sure to keep them busy! From scratch and scribbles and coloring books to chunky paint sticks and scented pens, the kiddos will keep busy and off of their devices.

Our new Watermelon Balls were created to mimic the actual flotation of a real watermelon - It can be passed, dribbled, and kicked all underwater!

Speaking of underwater, protect their eyes with the fabulous Bling2o goggles. These fun goggles were created by women to give kids a chance to show off their style. For girls, it’s blinging with sprinkles, and boys can race in the water with the coolest style around.

Not sure how you feel about bubbles, but I find them to be a mess! Ashton loves to blow bubbles, so naturally, I had to find a solution. Meet Uncle Bubbles! It is a pop-up bubble blower. They use reverse osmosis to ensure the water they use to make the bubbles is clean and pure. Just squeeze and blow!
