Kids Posh Togs

Children just love playing in water whether it is on the beach or by the pool and with the Summer holidays not too far away, now is the time to be kitting them out with new swimming suits / trunks and associated accessories.  The thing with children is that they are in and out of the water all the time.  Getting them dried in between times especially if it is cold and windy is a real pain, and then you have to get the towel dry for when you need it the next time!

These towelling ponchos are a much better idea than towels for getting little ones dried and comfortable.  Just pop them on after being in the water and the children are warm and dry in no time, and can run around and play at the same time which is much more fun for them.  Also, by being covered up they are getting a little protection from the harmful rays of the sun too.

The first two ponchos are for babies and toddlers up to the age of 2 years, whilst the bottom two will fit children between 2 – 10 years.

Hopefully where you are it is as gorgeous as it is here today.  A beautiful blue sky and hours of bright sunshine, although it is still quite cold.  After the lengthy winter we have had, I’m not complaining though!

With thoughts of the summer ahead, I’ve decided today to bring you an item that will be much sought after during the holiday season.  Float suits are great for small children who perhaps are only learning to swim.  They give reassurance to the child and therefore help build confidence in the water.  The individual floats inside the band around the waist can be removed separately as the need arises and less dependence is required of them.

What is even better about this float suit is the fact that it is a UV protection suit too!  Whilst you can buy the two items separately it makes sense to have both functions provided by one item.  With a UV protection factor of 50 you can be happy in the knowledge that your child is having extra protection against the harmful rays of the sun, yet still having fun.

It may be winter outside and very dreary weather, but the holidays will soon be upon us and many people are planning to jet off to escape the miserable weather and soak up a bit of sun.  Depending on where you go, some people may find themselves in quite strong sun, where it is imperative to ensure all family members are well protected from the harsh rays of the sun.  No-one is more vulnerable than small children.

These Zoggs UV sun hats in deep blue or pink are very deep so will ensure heads and necks are well covered.

Other items of sun protection for children are also available.

We brought you some of these items last summer, but thought it appropriate to promote them again.  With personal experience of the dangers of too much exposure to the sun in those early childhood days, we at Kids-Posh-Togs can’t urge you enough to ensure that the delicate skin on your child is protected sufficiently.  That is why we love these all-in-one suits and separates.  Made to give protection of 50+ SPF, these items don’t cost the earth but are priceless if they can save children from the trauma of skin cancer in later life.  (Of course any exposed skin outside these items needs to be adequately coated in high factor suncream).  The added bonus is that these items also keep you warm, which is particularly helpful when used on our British beaches!

Unfortunately, until new stocks arrive, many of these products are selling out and only one or two sizes remain in some cases.  However it is worth having a look to see if the apprpriate size is available for your child.
