One of these days I'll install Photoshop
(Did you know you can use your kid's student id (kindergartner's count!) to get Photoshop
 Here's my favorite summer products for kids in the city.
(Featuring items we actually bought and own!)
|
1. Sidewalk Chalk. Remember last year's rainbow? We used this chalk.
2. Burt's Bees Sunscreen. Chemical Free!
3. Native Slip-On Shoes I'm spotting them all over the city. They are the perfect marriage of Converse and Crocs. But be warned: Natives gave little Owen and Oscar's baby skin the worst blisters on their heals. Ella didn't get any for some reason. Oscar's blisters have healed and he's been wearing his shoes again. Owen hasn't worn his Natives since these pictures were taken (last Friday!) because his blister is still healing. It was a doozy.
4. Anything American Apparel Kids. Most of these Alphabet T's are only $4! Or even $2!

Those are way cuter than crocs! My kids wear flip flops a lot. Sometimes we'll be out and Lance will be doing some crazy dance moves and one will fly off. haa
ReplyDeletehaha i can totally picture that !!
DeleteAnd he'll keep on doing his wild dance moves, shoeless, until I remind him to put his shoes back on.
DeleteP.S. I love Oscar's face in the second picture, Mr. Cool. hahaa Do all of them wear the same size now?
ReplyDeleteI love Burt's Bees sunscreen; we've been using it for over 3 years and not a burn yet!!
ReplyDeleteCute shoes (and everyone seems to have them!), but I have to say I have the same reaction to them that I do to crocs....plastic shoes = blisters. And just, well...more plastic stuff for our landfills. sigh.
ReplyDeleteI've been wondering about these shoes.. thanks for the honest review! I have a pair of knock off Natives that I got from BabyGap a few months ago for like $5 and he loves them, but I've wondered about the blisters. I really wanted to get a pair for my husband, but wouldn't your feet get warm in rubber? Anyone worn them for adults? They do look super cool though ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the tip for Photoshop!
