Elizabeth's Note: As a mom of four sons now 22-24-26 and 28, I stand by this car seat, even if they won't fit in it :) We shipped these to my younger sister to test out with her three kids and they were a parent and grandparent favorite!!
With spring and summer around the corner, beaches will begin to fill with families eager to enjoy the warm ocean air and sand in their toes. Whether you're hanging ten or just hanging out, diono, a leading car seat manufacturer, curated a list of 'New Mom Beach Bag Essentials,' to help make trips under the summer sun easier and more organized than ever!
Please see below for a list of essential beach bag items every mom – new and not so new – should pack up this summer:
diono rainier is the ultimate in car seat safety. Extra deep side walls provide enhanced side impact protection, taking Diono car seats to a whole new level. It comfortably seats rear-facing children up to 50 lbs and forward-facing children up to 90 lbs in the 5-point harness. It converts to a booster for children up to 120 lbs. (Amazon.com; SRP: $379.99)
diono Travel Pal is designed to keep books and toys neat and organized. It has a deep cargo bin for toys and lots of pockets for smaller things, too. It also has insulated drink holders and the entire cargo area is waterproof – just in case. Travel Pal fits between two child car seats and it's big enough to hold everything for both children. (Amazon.com; SRP: $15.99)
This is also very clever.
Easy View Plus - When traveling in the car and your little one is rear-facing, it’s hard to check on them safely. The Diono Easy View Plus overcomes this and provides the perfect way to see your baby during the day or night.
Easy View Plus™ provides an even larger crystal clear viewing mirror than our standard Easy View back seat mirror. It also has a light so you can check your baby in the dark.
Gradual illumination and gentle dimming prevent startling baby. The light operates with a remote control (2 AAA and 3 AA batteries required) which can be kept close at hand in the front of the car.
The Easy View Plus back seat mirror rotates 360 degrees and pivots on a ball and socket. This allows for the perfect viewing angle without needing to move the rear view mirror and means the mirror does not have to be positioned above baby.
The Easy View Plus back seat mirror attaches with adjustable straps onto the headrest and does not block rear visibility.
We also love this car seat safety installation video! Allana Pinkerton, Global Safety Advocate at Diono®, shows you how to install a forward-facing Diono car seat using the vehicle lap/shoulder belt.
