Summer has (finally) arrived, and it's high time to get ready for vacation. You can't wait to head to the seaside with your little one to enjoy the water. So, it's important to have everything you need to protect them and keep them comfortable. Read on to find out about the essentials for your baby this summer.
Sunscreen:
First on the list of these essentials, sunscreen is obviously the most important thing to have with you. Whether it's for a day at the beach or a stroll with the stroller, it's important to protect your baby from the sun's UV rays. Vidiamo's top pick: Alphanova's organic baby sunscreen lotion, SPF 50+ protection, 100% natural https://alphanova.fr/product/creme-solaire-bebe-bio-haute-protection/
The Vidiamo parasol:
To further protect your child from the sun's UV rays, consider equipping your Limo stroller with the Vidiamo parasol to keep them safe and comfortable. Compatible with all Limo configurations (bassinet, double, single, etc.), it's perfect for keeping your child in the shade. Featuring a flexible handle, it folds easily and, thanks to its adapter, attaches anywhere on the stroller. Vidiamo tip: if both your children are in the Limo, consider attaching two parasols. One for the child on the main seat and the other for the older child on the jump seat. https://www.vidiamo.com/collections/accessoires-limo/products/ombrelle-limo
The UV-protective t-shirt:
To ensure your child can safely swim, play at the beach, or by the pool, remember to dress them in a UV-protective T-shirt. Guaranteed sunburn protection! Vidiamo's favorite: Canopea UV-protective tops—cute, stylish, and 100% European-made. Certified UPF50+, they block 98% of UVA and UVB rays. https://canopea-paris.com/fr/
Sunglasses:
Don't forget your child's eyes! With cute, flexible designs perfect for little hands, Ki et La sunglasses are ideal. Offering sizes for babies up to 12 years old, they are eco-friendly and affordable. https://www.kietla.fr/shop/lunettes-soleil-enfant/
The hat:
Essential for protecting your baby's sensitive skin, a hat for a newborn keeps their head at a comfortable temperature (in summer as well as winter!). Many brands offer them, whether made of cotton, UV-resistant, waterproof, or other materials.
Mosquito repellent products:
Summer is a magical time of year…except when there are mosquitoes. Put yourself in your baby's shoes, unable to keep them away, and help them get rid of them. Please note that it's best not to use any products on a child under 30 months old. However, there are alternatives for them. At night, protect them, for example, with a mosquito net. For older children, there are suitable products with a low concentration of DEET (a chemical mosquito repellent). These are the preferred option. Other natural alternatives, such as essential oils (which must be diluted), can also be considered. However, if your baby gets bitten, disinfect the bite and soothe it with an ice cube (if it's still swollen) or products such as aloe vera, mint, and banana peel (yes, really!).
The pair of open shoes:
To complete this list of summer essentials, we recommend jelly shoes. Practical for all types of terrain, they are non-slip, held in place by straps, and easy to care for. Their openings allow your baby's feet to breathe and regulate their temperature. In the water, they are perfect for keeping your baby's feet well protected.
You are now all set to have a most enjoyable summer, and above all, with a safe baby!!
