5 Summer Essentials Every Mom Needs

Summer is in full swing and it is inevitable that we pack the “essentials” when heading out for a day of fun. With four kids, I’ve gathered plenty of experience over the years, so I rounded up my favorite 5 summer essentials every mom needs!

From pool and beach bag essentials, to baseball, boating and going to your favorite park, my list of 5 summer essentials every mom needs will come in handy on any summer outing!

It goes without saying that when we’re headed out during the summer we pack the usual items:

✔️ sunscreen

✔️ lip protection

✔️ hats for the kids

✔️ glasses

✔️ cover ups/rash guards

✔️ water and snacks

But what about the other essentials that make a day on your bucket list for summer even better?! Here are my top 5 summer essentials that I can’t live without!

Why I love this hat

This hat comes in multiple color options and it has a lanyard so the wind doesn’t blow it off! If you have ever tried to wear a hat on a boat day, you know how important this is! It’s foldable, packable and you can adjust the size too!

This hat is super cute and works for ANY summer outing and pretty much any outfit too!

Why I love this water bottle

This fruit infuser water bottle is BPA free, leak free and bottom loading, and best of all- it comes with a lifetime warranty. I can throw this in my bag and head out for the day! It has an easy pop top so the kids can even use it.

I love drinking water with lemon infused but my favorite is adding strawberries! It comes with an insulating sleeve to keep my water cool and an easy carrying strap.

Price $24.99

Why I love this can insulator

This is one of the best gifts my husband has gotten me. I use it all the time! It fits standard cans and bottles and the best part is that its dishwasher safe and light enough to throw in your bag for a day at the pool or a game.

Plus it comes in multiple color options. I love the teal color he got me!

Price $19.99

Why I love this speaker

This speaker is WATERPROOF!! Enough said right?! Perfect for a day at the beach or pool with kids! We like to have the speaker, extra sunscreen, our cooler and all of the kids toys on the pool deck for easy access while we are swimming. The speaker always gets soaked from “watch me” cannonballs and I never have to worry about it because its waterproof!

Bonus! It comes in several colors and has a rechargeable battery!

Price $49.95

Why I love this safe

We love this for so many reasons! It comes in multiple color options and is perfect for a Disney day, a day of golfing or hooked on the stroller at a game! It is rust-resistant and water-resistant (90 day warranty included) which makes it perfect for the beach or pool too!

Price $14.99

Why we love this product

Now that we have discovered these, we will never be caught without them again! These are perfect for the boys baseball hats and for my husband and older son when they go golfing.

They stop sweat from dripping into your eyes and they prevent that gross sweat stain on your hat. The best part is that they are disposable, so toss it after you’re done and your hat is still good as new!

They come in packs of 3, 6, 12 and 25 (perfect for the team!)
