Beach Tips:

  1. Bring some baby powder to get the sand off easier!
    • Pour baby powder onto hands.
    • Rub hands together and then rub off the sand
  2. Put some aloe vera in an ice cub tray before you leave and place it in the freezer in case someone gets a little bit too much sun.
  3. Don’t forget an adorable picnic blanket and some shade to cool off when needed.
