Beach Tents
Any recommendations? I know BRU has those ones that you can fold up, and i've seen other ones online at Target that are like regular tents (with poles you insert and stick in the sand, etc) - just looking for some feedback from you BTDT moms (or any other moms lol) :)
I love the idea of those ones that fold up yourself, but I am retarded and can never get those things to refold right lol... But I digress :)
Anyway - can you let me know what ones you guys use? Thanks a million!

Re: Beach Tents
I have a small one from BRU called the Kwik Cabana, it's good for the baby who isn't going to be mobile or needs a lot of room. (I'm giving it to my brother for his daughter who will be 3-4 months this summer)...
Anyway, this is the one I want to get for Michael from One Step Ahead. I think it looks big enough for him this summer and hopefully next summer. We went to the beach this weekend and putting up the umbrella was a PITA!
Then I just saw this one, hmm... now I don't know...

We bought Bella this one from Amazon. It has the poles but it is actually easy to assemble. It also folds up and goes into a little bag which is easy to carry.

Re: Beach Tents
Thanks a bunch! Jillian is 7 mos now, so I'm thinking she'll be crawling by the end of summer (she's a big roller over-er now) so something with some room to let her explore is great. I kind of like the enclosed ones so (at least her stuff) can be partially contained hee hee.
Thanks so much!

I have the beach cabana from One Step Ahead. I used it this weekend and I love it!!!! It's big and perfect for bring dd to the beach. It's a little cumbersome the first time opening and closing but once you do it, it's easy as pie. Use BABY15 and get 15% off your order over $75.00

This is the one I saw and thought about getting - but I'm the same way - I had a feeling I wouldn't get it folded too
The one from One Step Ahead that was recommended actually shows you a video on how to fold it up, perfect for idiots like me And i'm sure I'd still be confounded when actually at the beach later on lol.

I bought this one after Liza posted it on my previous thread. I have to admit, folding it the first time was a PITA, but I think I have the hang of it now. I like that it folds really flat and hardly takes up any space.
