Thanks for the tips for summer clothes for the kids. Sunscreen and hats are good if they will keep a hat on. 4 of my 5 grand kids are all boys -so expect them to get dirty. Dont dress the girls in frilly dresses for the park – it can be dangerous is they get caught in the playground equipment. And yes girls like to play in the dirt too.

I think that it is great that you tell people to put a hat on their child. They can not only get a sunburn on their scalp, but it helps hide their delicate faces from sun damage. I think you should also mention that SUNSCREEN should be number one, if you just apply it everyday and get into the habit of it, your kids will thank you for it later.

Great Tips. I have a 9 year old and 17 month old baby girl and I got so many sun dresses for the summer and sandals Rompers are GREAT too and of course we have lots of sandals, I agree with you, to try and have outside clothes separate, I tend to not think about that and my daughter ends up getting good clothes super dirty, But thank goodness for TIde 98% of the time I can get it out. Thank you for sharing =)

Great post! ESPECIALLY putting comfort first! I had a friend who dressed her kids in designer outfits, no matter if they were even going to the playground. She said (and this is the Gospel truth!) that her worst nightmare was that if she died, her husband would put the kids in tee shirts and jeans. I SWEAR she said this, and meant it.

These are 5 very good tips. Sunscreen is so important and some clothes now have protection in the material.
