How many sunglasses have you lost so far in the water? I lost count a while ago!

Rheos rival luxury brands in both style and quality, but are incomparably more comfortable thanks to the lightweight frame material being as much as 30% lighter than the other guys. Because these shades weigh less, Rheos float in water while the rest sink. That means no more losing expensive sunnies when your swimming at the beach, kayaking on a lake, or fishing on the river! Rheos feature premium polarized lenses that are scratch resistant, 100% UV protected, AND include a finish of dual-sided anti-fog coating for maximum clarity. In addition to our variety of stylish adult frames, Rheos also has a line for kids and babies with all the same benefits!

She is able to take the headphone on and off and control the volume all by herself. My favorite thing about these headphones is their ability to share audio.

And they sell in 9 different colors!

29. Wipe Clean Workbooks

For some educational fun, while traveling, it’s nice to have wipe clean workbooks on hand. They work with a dry erase marker so the kids are able to do them over and over again.

Made of quality polypropylene, the material gives you UV 30+ and PF 96% protection against sun rays, and it’s also waterproof up to 300mm. As a pop-up tent, it’s easy to assemble and fold back up, and it’s an excellent product to let your children have fun on hot sunny days at the beach without worrying about them being out in the sun for too long.

Buy on Amazon.com, 19.99$USD (ships to Canada)

35. Soundbub

SoundBub, a Bluetooth enabled portable speaker and white noise machine available as an owl, bunny or bear. It’s lightweight, incredibly easy to tote on the go and stows away in a purse or carry on no problem.

The white noise feature is especially great for a noisy hotel room (and for getting babies to nap while out and about – it’s the only thing that gets mine to nap in the car), and the portable speaker function is nice if you find yourself wanting some music (particularly as part of the wind-down / bedtime routine).

Additionally, WavHello’s free VoiceShare® mobile app allows anyone you love (including long-distance relatives) to record messages that you can play via SoundBub – perfect for keeping loved ones near while you’re away.

It makes getting around the airport with young children much easier! Happy kids = happy parents! They are designed to fit in the cabin as hand luggage, but you just need to check as some airlines have reduced the size of permitted hand luggage and have effectively outlawed them as free carry on luggage, something we came unstuck by recently!
