We love the pool!
Pool days are essential in the crazy summer heat. We don’t have a backyard pool – we didn’t want one for safety reasons – so we joined a pool and visit multiple times a week. It’s a great way to get fresh air and burn some energy before afternoon naps.
I’ve got our gear down to a science so I wanted to share what we use each pool day.
Sunscreen – Be sure to reapply every two hours OR *after you get wet.* Luckily we don’t spend two hours at the pool and we have sun protective clothing so that helps also. Anyways, this is my favorite face sunscreen. We love Sun Bum for body for everyone.
Swimsuits – I love this swimsuit because it protects my entire upper body. This is what our son wears. This swimsuit from Target is what our daughter wears – we have 3 different versions.
Shoes – This pair of sandals from Target is the only pair I wear to the pool. They can get wet and they’re super affordable so I don’t have to worry about something happening to them! This is what my toddler wears and they are also waterproof and affordable.
Towels – We got a ton of towels at Costco. Can’t beat their prices and quality!
Hats – These hats provide great sun protection and we love them.
Pool Bag – Pool bags need to be big and waterproof. This XL Bag from LL Bean fits the bill and has become dedicated to pool trips.
Toys – We love measuring cups (haha) and then boats and whatever else our friends bring to the pool. This looks like a great set!
There are still many more fun days to enjoy the pool so we will be out there staying cool and having fun. Have a great rest of the week!
