50 Toddler & Baby Beach Necessities
If you've ever been to the beach with a toddler or baby, you know they require quite a few things. I've now been out of the toddler game for a couple of years (and, let me tell you - it is SO much easier to travel or go to the beach with an older child). When we had really little ones, I felt like we pack our whole house each time we go out of town, but we really did use just about everything we brought!
Today, I thought I'd share a few of our favorite things for surviving (and loving) the beach with either a baby or a toddler - the best beach essentials in my arsenal. Some are more practical items and some are just plain fun - but I think all of these are really useful and are things we grab for time and time again.
