Fun In the Sun

 

Sunshine & Glitter –While enjoying a day of fun in the sun with mom, help protect her skin with Sunshine & Glitter sunscreen. Sunshine & Glitter is the creation of Jess Girod (of “The Bachelor” and “Bachelor in Paradise” fame) that mixes antioxidants, sweet smelling fragrances and a soft texture that will gently blend in and help provide SPF protection (UVA & UVB coverage).

Family Fun

 

Stomp Rocket – While out having fun with the family give the kids an activity to get them moving and learning. How about something where no batteries are required?

Kids will learn STEM-based principles such as gravity, force and motion as they throw, launch and catch either on their own or with a pal/sibling. Price: $29.99

 

Xplorer Maps – After a long day of fun outdoors with mom, wind down with an activity that will bring the family together. Xplorer Maps are hand-drawn story maps that beautifully illustrate destinations worldwide.

The National Park Service has even teamed up with the brand to include cultural relevance in these creations. The puzzles are one-of-a-kind to provide a unique story map that contains detailed depictions of the places that are illustrated all in an Antiquarian style. Price: $5.99 – $29.99
