Fun in the Sun Roundup

There is an adage in the Pacific Northwest that the summer sun is only guaranteed between Independence Day and Labor Day. So we are bringing you some of our favorite local products as we kick off the official start of the season of fun in the sun!
reusable swim diaper

A must-have for fun in the sun is gear for those trips to to the local pool to cool off. Forget about disposable swim diapers and give these reusable Fattycakes cloth swim diapers from Lil Adi a try. You can layer them under a swimming suit but they're cute enough to wear alone as well.

UVF clothing

Sun protection is a must but kids hate having their fun delayed while sunscreen is being applied. With UPF clothing like these rashguards from Outside Baby, you can cut down on the whining and get on with the playing. This is where form meets function for the summer.
