Last-minute buys to get the kids ready for holiday
From sunglasses to hats, here are the finishing touches to ensure the kids are ready for the beach
You’ve been waiting all year for your summer break. Now it’s days away, you may find yourself frantically finishing work deadlines and needing to stock up on all those last-minute items. Here are the final few pieces to pack in the kids’ suitcases to ensure they’re ready for action.
Get shady
Long hot days on holiday are for making memories, not for squinting in dazzling sunlight. Our children’s shades offer 100% UV filter, so you can rest assured their eyes will be protected. The dilemma? Whether to go for on-trend plastic frames or classic aviators. Alternatively, the flamingo or pineapple styles are sure to raise smiles.
Happy feet
There are few things more annoying for kids than sticky, hurty feet. Comfortable sandals mean children can play carefree all summer, whether in the park or on the beach. They key is to ensure their sandals fit (don’t forget our in-store shoe fitting service) and work with a variety of outfits. Note: neutral shades go with anything so will offer more outfit-matching potential. Plus, brands like Salt-Water make shoes that not only look great but can be worn in the sea.
Top off their look
Hats are important for keeping kids protected when the temperature rises, whether you go for classic straw boaters or comfortable caps. For younger kids, there’s also the option of styles which cover the back of the neck, an area which can easily get burnt.
