Beach day with kids – 5 accessories to pack

Are you planning a holiday with your children? It’s better to think ahead and prepare the necessary accessories. No beach outfit is complete without a stylish, comfortable swimsuit or swim shorts! Of course, it is also important to cover your kid’s head – with a stylish hat or a baseball cap. How can we make beach day safe and stylish?

Children’s accessories – quality matters

Playing on the beach and in the water is the most fun a child can have. Comfort is key, but it doesn’t mean that your child can’t be comfortable and fashionable at the same time.

Quality is the most important part of choosing products for children, so the offer of premium brands is worth exploring – after all, quality is their main concern. Such brands care not only about the fashionable design of clothes and accessories but also about children’s comfort and safety. With that in mind, let’s look at 5 accessories we should pack for our kids before going to the beach!

1. Colourful swimsuit or swim shorts

Children are drawn to colourful things, so it will make them very happy to wear a colourful swimsuit or swim shorts. Spare no expense when it comes to swimwear, because a breathable, high-quality fabric will last longer. The child can wear it not only on the beach but also at the pool, by the lake or in the garden.

“This season, except for classic cartoon characters, swimwear for kids features graphic and comic book prints, as well as lettering and colourful patterns (for example flowers and leaves, also used on adult swimwear). You can find them in new collections from Kenzo Kids and Stella McCartney Kids”, suggests Karolina Pietrasik-Książek, an expert working for the online shop Vitkac.com.

2. Kid’s holiday trip backpack

Every kid dreams of a colourful little backpack, where he or she can put their toys and beach accessories. The backpack should be lightweight and capacious, have several pockets and adjustable shoulder straps. Just like swimwear, it will last longer if it’s high-quality.

3. Covering the child’s head – what to choose?

Small kids are vulnerable to the harmful effects of sunlight, especially on the beach. The easiest way to stave off the heat is to put a light-coloured baseball cap or hat on their head.

4. Shoes perfect for the beach

The most useful shoes on the way to the beach are espadrilles and sandals, which will let the child’s feet breathe despite the heat. Those styles are also stable, fashionable and very comfortable. This season’s colours are vivid, like pink, yellow, orange and green (used, for example, in collections by Stella McCartney Kids or Gucci Kids). Pay attention to the material the shoes are made of – it should be breathable and durable.

5. Capacious mum’s bag

Where to keep the kid’s things during a holiday trip? Every mum needs a capacious, comfortable beach bag, which will hold everything she and her child need. Pay attention to the durability of the fabric and good workmanship – the bag will have to hold a lot of things. High-quality fabrics won’t fade in sunlight and are easy to clean.
