We know that being a parent is the best, but also pretty tough; and no matter how good a mom and/or dad you are, you sometimes just cannot possibly be on all fronts. An entire day at the beach isn’t what it was anymore, a towel, a bikini, and a bottle of water and you were ready to hop in the car to enjoy a nice book near the sea; today a trip to the beach for you and your tribe requires some organization and planning. But don’t worry, we have you covered with a complete check-list to not forget anything on your next beach trip and keep everyone happy and entertained all day.
