10 Best: Last-minute holiday buys

August 10, 2018. Leave a Comment

I've got just over a week to get everyone and everything organised for our fortnight in Puglia (if anyone's been and has any tips or recommendations I'd love to hear them), so I've been browsing online and thought I'd share a few of my favourite finds. for small people. I also always pack Altruist Sunscreen, Avon Skin So Soft as insect repellent and I'll be spritzing on my Disciple Balancing Mist during the flight. My new (birthday pressie) Scamp & Dude Swag Bag with purpose will be travelling with me.

What don't you travel without? Have you spotted any kids' holiday must haves? Let us know in the comments, on Facebook, email us on team@bambinogoodies.co.uk or find us on Instagram as @bambinogoodies.

PS: The kids use our colourful pencil cases (now just £2 each in the sale) as travel pouches for tissues, wallet, notebook and pencil.

Rose in April

Rose in April Dream Big embroidered children's beach basket, £32, Smallable.
Because Mama's bag isn't big enough to carry everyone's towel and book to the beach. PS: These baskets are available in adult sizes, too...

Frugi

Frugi Little Havana starfish hooded towel, £26,
Natural Baby Shower.
It's hard to beat the feeling of getting out of wet bathers and snuggling up in a towelling hoodie – this Frugi one is particularly soft and cosy.

Indikidual

Fresh sun-safe rash vest and shorts, £25.20,
Indikidual.

Always take one more swimsuit than you think you'll need – nothing worse than wanting a dip and having nothing to wear. This print is fabulous.

Little Hotdog Watson
Baseball sunhat with neck flap, £24.99,
Little Hotdog Watson.
Hands down, the best children's sunhats in the known universe: UPF 50+ protective, mosquito repellent, cooling fabric and popping prints. What's not to love?

 

Bling2Go
Bling2Go shark goggles, £20, Paperchase.
Make sure their swimming pool chic has an edge with a pair of embellished goggles.
Quut
Quut Scoppi spade, £21.99,  My Small World on Trouva.
Forget your traditional busket and spade – Quut's ultra-modern beach toys are where it's at.
Slipfree
Pool shoes, £14.95, Slipfree.
Put an end to poolside tumbles with these lightweight grippy shoes which help to protect little feet from hot sand and sharp pebbles and are fine for swimming in.
Monkey Monkey
Indi Preppy sunglasses, £15, Monkey Monkey.
Children's sunglasses are all too often flimsy and emblazoned with TV characters – Monkey Monkey offer an array of stylish designs with UV protection.
Readly

Readly subscription, £7.99 per month.
So annoying to spend £15 on magazines at the airport then lug them around. Download Readly for access to 1800 titles (loads for kids) – there's currently a 14-day free trial offer.

 

La Basketry
Woven fan, £12, La Basketry.
Finally, one for the mamas. These divine fans are the ultimate practical holiday accessory. Just email for colourways and details of how to buy yours.
