To The Beach With Babes

Lifestyle
Written By Lisa Soboleski

The weather is warm, babes under five are finally (! … I have one of those, is why I’m screaming) getting vaccinated, the beach is calling, and we are answering. If you're planning a road trip to the beach with kids, you’re going to need something to keep them occupied in the back seat, at the hotel, and in the sand! 

For starters, beach and pool toys! You probably didn't realize you needed a turtle sifter named Shelley and a whale scoop named Moby, but as it turns out, you really do. This darling 3-Piece Sand Play Set is one of our favorite new arrivals. Sweetly designed little creatures that are so much fun for littles to play with. Same for this pelican bucket. The sweetest bucket you’ll ever lay eyes on with its little beak spout.

Just as important as toys for the beach is some entertainment for the car rides and for that exhausting window between beach time and bedtime. Travel puzzles, cuddly Jellycats, snacks, easy-to-pack toys, and a personal favorite, Mermaid Dreams - a beautifully illustrated book about a little girl whose trip to the beach turns into a magical undersea adventure. 

Shop the entire collection here and make some sweet, sweet memories with those littles this summer.
