With summer on the way, I wanted to share some of my go-to baby bath and beach essentials that make outings and routines easier. I always keep a portable changing pad in every bag—it’s compact, wipes clean, and perfect for quick diaper changes anywhere.

For beach days, a bucket and soft silicone toy set keeps Hayes entertained and is easy to pack and rinse off. This baby pool float adds extra support and safety while keeping babies comfortable in the water. I also recommend this brush on face sunscreen—it’s SPF 50, fragrance-free, and goes on easily without the mess. Finally, a stackable snack dispenser is great for snacks on the go.

This temperature-sensing rubber duck takes the guesswork out of bath time, helping you get the perfect water temp. Hayes also loves this whale spray toy. It makes bath time 10/10 and keeps Hayes entertained forever.

You can find all these items and more of my favorites on my Amazon storefront. Everything is linked in one place for easy shopping.
