I asked my friend Rachel, mother of two, and owner of Best Mom Products, LLC, what her top five beach bag must-haves are. Here is what she shared with me.

1.  Well, of course, having a red-haired fair-skinned daughter -- I definitely have 50 sunblock. :)  I just bought Aveeno Baby Mineral Block made with all minerals.  I think this is a nice, lesser expensive alternative to other lines. Hats, too although the girls rarely keep them on.

2.  Towels -- just found some cute ones that are tank top towel dresses at Costco.  They snap in front -- good to keep their core warm and they also act as a cover-up.

3.  Snacks - lots of them.  The sunshine and being outdoors makes them twice as hungry -- lots of fruit, granola bars, cookies, peanut butter & jelly.

4. Change of clothes for when it is time to go home -- who wants to sit in a wet bathing suit?

5.  The Best Mom Products, LLC "Talking CPR Kit"  :)
