Re: rec a sun canopy for beach

Ooh! I like that one! I have a mini version of that since DS is born and used it a few times last year. Put him in it while I gardened because it zipped up for bug protection. And used it on the beach. I was able to sit in it and BF, a little squished though! This one is nice and big and I think still folds to a small round circle.

ETA: Oh... one thing to check for that I found handy on my small one.... see if it has pockets to fill with sand so it does not blow away. It looks like maybe that band of print on the bottom sides would be a pocket flap to fill with sand but cannot tell by those pics. It's a handy feature that works.

I never used one. I would take your DD to the beach first and see if she likes it. My kids aren't a big fan of the beach and I think last year we went 3 times. By the 3rd time they finally thought it was fun and the season was over. If she does like it and you think you will go often then I would get it, otherwise it is just another thing to schlep.

Re: rec a sun canopy for beach

we took my DD to the beach while in NY and she LOVED it!!!!!

We are renting a house for a week, so thought this might be useful for a break, snacks, and for me to sit under to rest

Next year there will be 2 and I thought it would be useful to BF in.
