All opinions are mine alone. #WaterThemDailyCB #CollectiveBiasBabies and summer are hard. There is so much to remember and you can't always find a cool place to hang out so what we love to do is head to the pool. I'm going to show you what to pack in your summer swim bag and also how to make a personalized saying so you don't get it mixed up with your neighbors..or lose your pool key (that may have happened today)I used some Iron-On Vinyl and my Cricut Explore to make the saying ‘Life's a Beach'. They have a Heidi Swapp font now available that is to die for and so of course I had to use it. I used some teal glitter Iron-On and placed my iron on medium settings so that it won't burn. To see the entire ironing process, head here. It's pretty easy, just be sure to apply pressure and when you're going to wash the bag, be sure to turn it inside out. Now that we go to our community pool weekly, I needed a bag that would house everything and nothing that I'd have to transfer, I needed a dedicated swim bag for my baby. Older kids, smolder kids – they are important but you just need less stuff when you go out so lucky me, I've got this bag now. Here are my 8 essentials that you'll need in your summer swim bag.
- Huggies Little Swimmers – The swim pant has adjustable tabs on the side that are great for quick changes. They come with new characters from Disney•Pixar Finding Dory, possibly the best movie to be released in a while!
- Camera – You want to catch those sweet moments at the pool. Just remember that a camera is replaceable – your child is not.
- A thin blanket – You want one that's breathable so that the breeze can cool your baby down once you've decided to remove them from the pool. Muslin or cotton is a great choice.
- A useful toy – You don't want a toy that your teething baby can't grasp or put in their mouth. There is such a better selection of toys nowadays and I'm sure they'll just get even better.
- Food – Whether they eat formula or they've moved onto finger foods, having some food is good for everybody involved.
- Sunscreen – Be sure to put sunscreen on you and your babes. This is so important and more important to me now. I've recently had some moles removed which were one step away from being malignant. Just because my kids are bi-racial, it doesn't make them immune to skin cancer. Start them early!
- Change of clothes – You don't want your baby to be freezing if the older siblings are still in the pool but they're ready to get out. Be sure to have some extra clothes and diapers in your bag to get them all warm and snugly.
- Your phone – Malakai's therapist always used the light on the screen to help him with his head and eye movement so it's got some purpose other than entertainment. You also want to have your phone available for emergencies in case any arise.
