The summer is here, which means it’s vacation time!
Whether you’re planning an extended break with the kids, sending them on vacation with relatives and want to know what to pack in their beach bag, or just planning to spend a day or two at the beach, here are 13 essential beach items you must make sure you pack!
1. Splash Foam Pumper Water Gun
We all know you can't take the kids to the beach and expect them to kick back and relax like we might love to.
But thankfully, it isn't like we need to come up with too much to ensure they don't get bored!
Put this Splash Foam Pumper Water Gun at the top of your pre-vacation shopping list, and you'll guarantee your children have loads of fun in the water. It's worth investing in some swimming goggles, too, so your trip isn't quickly interrupted due to their eyes being full of seawater!
2. Foam Poof Football
Another great way to kick off fun beach games is with this Foam Poof Football.
This product guarantees hours of fun and is sure to see your kids making plenty of friends as others flock to join in.
If you want to get involved without exerting too much effort, it’s light enough to throw a reasonable distance while you sit still as the kids go long!
3. All-Star Sling Shot
Don't worry! This one comes with targets so you don't find yourself dealing with other kids' parents because yours could only find other youngsters to aim at!
This excellent Sling Shot toy is great fun for all ages and ideal for a friendly competition without the kids coming into direct contact and walking the fine line between fun and fighting!
4. Nature's Truth On the Go Essential Oil Blend Roll-On Lavender
A day at the beach can help soothe your troubles away on its own. But if you want to lose yourself to relaxation even more, this Nature’s Truth Essential Oil Roll-On is just what you need.
Feel rejuvenated and refreshed even as the day heats up, or add it to your packing list if you're heading to the beach to try a new yoga routine this summer!
5. Benadryl Antihistamine Tablets
The summer is supposed to be a time of great fun and enjoyment. But the hot season doesn’t always feel that way if you suffer from hay fever. Especially if the beach you go to happens to be surrounded by parkland on all sides.
Pack these Benadryl Antihistamine Tablets for anyone who needs them to ensure you remember your time at the beach for all the right reasons!
6. Benefiber Fiber Supplement On the Go
This hydrating drink mix will ensure you get all the fiber you need to maintain your digestive health, which we can often forget about as we settle into our vacation and aren’t necessarily as mindful of what we’re eating.
But as you’ll be doing everything you can to ensure you get plenty of water, add a stick of this fiber supplement to the mix for added benefits. It also works with coffee, juice, and yogurt and can also be added to recipes – just avoid putting it into carbonated drinks!
7. Carefree Acti-Fresh Pantiliners
When listing toiletries to pack for a beach vacation, it can be easy to forget things like pantiliners. The worst thing, if you do forget, is that when you realize, the first thing you'll think is how obvious it was that you needed to pack them.
This pack of 54 liners means you'll be covered for most of your vacation and will even have some to spare if you're traveling with a friend who forgets to pack theirs!
8. Johnson & Johnson Red Cross First Aid To Go Kit
We’ve all been there.
Everyone's at the beach having an incredible time when something playful goes too far, or a tennis ball hits someone flush in the nose. The day is over, you're heading home, and to add insult to injury, you also ruin a towel stopping a nosebleed.
If only you’d packed a First Aid Kit. Then the fun could have recommenced in a matter of minutes, and you’d have gotten to continue your day at the beach.
9. Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes Refill Pack
These Neutrogena makeup wipes aren’t just ideal for removing cosmetics if being on vacation means you can’t quite follow your usual skincare routine.
They’re also perfect to have on hand to quickly clean the kids up at the end of the day, before they have something to eat, or after they didn’t eat their ice cream quick enough and are now covered in the stuff!
10. Q-tips Swabs Purse Pack
Another on-the-go essential, this small pack of Q-tips means you can keep yourself looking your best if you've applied makeup before heading to the beach or are applying cosmetics in the evening before heading off to dinner or a party.
And even if you don’t use them on your vacation, you’re sure to find them useful for something when you return home.
11. Dr. Dan's CortiBalm Lip Balm
Although lips can chap more in the dry, cold months, the summer brings on a new drying enemy to battle: the sun. With burnt lips and drying waters when you swim, avoid a painful summer of chapped lips with a lip balm that does it all.
Keep your lips and the kiddos moist and protected with Dr. Dan’s CortiBalm Lip Balm.
12. Neutrogena Sheer Zinc Kids ineral Sunscreen Stick SPF 50+
If you’re looking for the best sunscreen for sensitive skin, look no further!
This Neutrogena Sheer Zinc Kids Mineral Sunscreen Stick is easy to apply and provides up to two hours of protection from the sun. Use it alongside other sun protection measures like limiting time in the sun and staying covered to minimize exposure to the sun's potentially harmful effects.
13. Sunflower Nuts Roasted Salted Snacks
What’s a trip to the beach without beach snacks?
Of course, you can always stock up on tasty treats when you arrive, but the shops and stalls at the beach will be nowhere near as budget-friendly as Thrifty White Health Essentials!
This bag of Sunflower Nuts is excellent for energy whether eaten alone or alongside dried fruit and other nuts, especially if it's so hot that you don't feel like eating anything substantial.
