The sun is beating down, the afternoon laziness is moving in and the vacation planning is in full swing! I have to share my girls with my ex during the summer but that does not mean that I can’t plan around it! I have already taken them to an awesome water park and am in the process of planning another trip! I grew up spending my summer days at the neighborhood pool and enjoying the rays of the day. I want my kids to have the same kind of summer! Less television and more fun! But one thing I never leave the house with, no matter where I am going on a summertime day, is sunscreen. Whether the signs of summer point to the beach, a water park, camping or a nightly walk around the neighborhood, protecting your kids and you from the harsh damage sun exposure can cause is a number one concern of mine! Luckily, Walmart has BANANA BOAT® on rollback right now so I stocked up for summer!

Banana Boat® sun care products are tested in seven conditions – sun, pool water, ocean water, wind, sweat, sand and extreme heat – to provide safe and effective broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection for the entire family.* If you did not know, reapplying is important throughout the day as well. No matter how good the protection is, it is important to know to apply 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) of sunscreen to you and your kids’ entire bodies 30 minutes before going outside and reapply every two hours or immediately after swimming or excessive sweating.

We had so much fun at the park that we did not want to leave! I never thought we could entertain ourselves in the water for 8 hours, but we did. The kids slept great, they had a memory making trip and mama got to be silly and happy with them as well!

Now, I love the BANANA BOAT® spray sunscreen™ for kids but it does not easily apply to their faces. So I also carry around the BANANA BOAT® Kids sunscreen stick™. They actually love using it so it makes reapplication more fun!

As our fun week at the water park progressed, we soaked up the summer sun, splashed in the water and enjoyed every moment without worrying about anything else. But no matter where you go this summer – to the pool, outside to play in the fort or on the water slide – take the protection of BANANA BOAT® with you.

Oh and don’t forget the BANANA BOAT® After Sun Lotion™! It’s awesome after a bath to sooth sun exposed skin!
