Article by Joanie Odom
Summer is here and the temperature is soaring. Many of us would have planned to spend a day or two at the beach (most probably the closest one, thanks to rising gas prices!!) to escape from the intense heat. There is nothing more enjoyable than having a day of fun at the beach especially if you live in very hot places like California, Arizona etc. When we go to the beach, either for just one day or for a week’s vacation, we need to be properly equipped from our clothing, sunscreen etc down to the accessories like beach chair, umbrellas etc that we take to relax.
For our family’s latest trip to the beautiful Myrtle beach, along with the usual items like sunscreen, beach towels, sand toys, hats etc, I took 2 other things which I found to be very useful. One was a very nice and convenient beach chair. It was one type of backpack beach chair with comfortable carrying straps. The beach chair was high-backed and has contoured pillow headrest which helped us to lounge comfortably or even take a short nap. The chair has four reclining positions, a cup holder and plenty of backpack storage space. Since it could be carried like a backpack, it was very convenient and I am sure that it could be used not only at the beach but also for camping, hiking etc. For the kids, we had pretty chairs in striking colors, fitted with canopies to protect them from the sun.
Along with these beach chairs, we also got a beach cart called the Rio wonder wheeler. It looks like a cart made of mesh fabric with steel frame. It is provided with wheels to make it portable and the handle is cushioned so that it would not hurt our hands while pushing. The wheeler has plenty of cargo space. We practically dumped all our items including the kids playthings like frisbees, footballs, a kite, the cooler with plenty of soft drinks, towels etc. When not in use, it could be easily folded and stored. This cart helped us to transport all the items from the car parking lot to the beach without losing a thing. Since I didn’t have to carry all the 20 or 25 items in my hands, the cart also helped me to take better care of my children in the heavy crowd.
Travel with kids could easily become strenuous if we don’t plan for it properly. But, due to good planning and helpful accessories, we had a day of fun at the beach.
