5 items to bring to the beach for kids

 

We had some beach time during our recent Fall trip and it was so great to just watch the kids enjoying themselves.

One loved the water (running from the waves) and the other loved the sand! The Mommy just sat and took photos, had snacks and got some sun.

Our hotel was just a few minutes walk to the beach, so I brought a small bag with just a few items. There were also some restaurants and supermarkets along the boardwalk. It wasn't a remote beach we had to trek to.

We didn't need sand toys, the kids just enjoyed digging in the sand with their hands.

Here are 5 items to bring when spending some time at the beach with kids:

* Water bottle

* Sunblock 

* Snacks

* Sarong or towel to sit on

* Change of clothes for kids

If you have a bag, add some,

Waterproof bandaids

In case kids are worried about their "Ows" before splashing in the water.

I limited the time out at the beach since the sun was so strong. I didn't want the kids to get overtired and need me to carry them up the hill back to our hotel.

We rinsed before going inside and then kids both wanted a warm bath in the tub ;) 

If you're planning to escape winter with a trip to a warmer place, enjoy your beach time!

Don't forget your snacks!
