beach naps with toddler?




Sexy Ma


when you go to the beach with your toddler...do you bring a pop up tent for them to sleep in or just put them under a beach umbrella on a towel? I am trying to find the easiet way for my 2 yr old son as i go to the beach often with him alone


Answer
We use an SPF-50 pop-up tent and it is a life-saver. It folds down compactly and fits in our beach bag but is still big enough for our 2 children and one adult to fit in. If it is nap-time, I lay a towel or blanket in the tent and zip the mesh door shut. Sometimes I lay a towel or blanket over top of the tent for added darkness and privacy. I think my kids sleep better if they don't have as much stimulation. What child would want to nap when they can see other kids running around having fun?! :)
Oh, and I also agree with investing in a pull-behind carry-all. They are so helpful, especially when you take the child(ren) by yourself.

Taking our 2 month old to the beach and need advise?

This friday we're bringing our 2 month old to atlantic city, any tips or recommendations on how to help him to not get burnt? We have a beach tent we're setting up, having a hat on at all times... What else? How old was ur little one when u first brought them to the beach?


Answer
My middle child was 6mos when she first went to the beach, and I think that was the youngest any of my kids were when they went.

Doctors don't recommend much sunblock for babies under 6mos, but they DO recommend using it if the baby has to be in the sun. You might want to get a sunblock stick for his face and hands, and then I would try finding a lightweight pair of pants and long-sleeved shirt or hooded coverup that will provide him some coverage. Sites like One Step Ahead sell beachwear that has SPF built in.

Definitely use a hat, and it may also be a good idea to buy or rent a beach umbrella. It can be positioned near the tent to keep any extra sun out, and can help if you keep him out of the tent for some of the time.
