Tips on Choosing the Best Kid Swimsuit for Your Little One

When you dive into the ocean of kid swimsuit options available it's hard to choose just one. Some come with amazing animal prints, others have cute ruffled butts and then, there are those with cartoon characters on them. If you are planning to take your little one for some fun on the beach or at the pool, then you should take your time and focus on choosing the right swimsuit. Those tiny pieces of wear are all cute and fun, but the truth is, there is more to consider when looking to buy the perfect swimsuit for your little girl or boy.

Along with the sun protective factor, the swimsuit is the next most important thing. We know that any parent wants to show off their little ones in the cutest outfit possible, but comfort is something you cannot compromise with. Especially in little kids. However, this doesn't mean you cannot have a well-dressed little kid on the beach, only that you need to focus on some important factors that come along with the process of choosing the perfect kid swimsuit.



  • Perfect fit

Since we have already mentioned the comfort, let's start with the fit. When looking to buy a kid swimsuit is of main importance to choose one that will perfectly fit your little one's body. The swimsuit should conform to her/his size and shape. If the suit is too small it can cause her/him a lot of discomforts and can even cause a rash if the elastic is too tight. On the other hand, you don't want to buy a suit that is too big for your little one. A big suit will make her/him experience a lot of difficulties while swimming or doing other water activities. Keep in mind that swimsuits are made of materials that easily expand when wet, so you don't really need a bigger piece. If you already feel confused here is a simple tip: buy a kid swimsuit that is one size up. Suits for kids usually run small so buying a size up from your child's regular clothing will probably be the best fit. If you are looking for a swimsuit for a baby, then you need to ensure it has enough room at the bottom to accommodate the swimming diaper.


  • High-quality material


Although they all look and feel similar, swimsuit comes made of different materials. When trying to choose the right material, consider the type of activities your child mostly enjoy. Does she/he love to swim or mostly spends her/his time playing in the sand, jumping and running around? Kids swimsuit that is a blend of spandex and lycra is the one that dries quickly once the child gets out of the water. Some suites come with a soft lining that allows for additional comfort while preventing the kid from breaking out in the rush. More importantly, always check the material if the child is allergic to any of them.


  • Sun protection 



Sun protective factor is a must. And there is no question about it. But along with this, it is a good idea to consider investing in a kid swimsuit that provides protection from the sun. There are certain materials that can minimize the number of UV rays getting into your child's skin. Not every suite feature this, so make sure you check the label. If the swimsuit is labeled as UPF then don't doubt to buy it. Moreover, if the UPF rating is around 50 it means the swimsuit offers protection against 97% of UV rays. If you can't find one with UPF then here is another advice: more coverage means more protection. So, consider buying a one-piece swimsuit or one with long sleeves instead of a bikini.


  • Design matters



It's hard to choose a kid swimsuit with so many styles available around. The adorable designs can easily attract you to buy more than one. For little girls, there are two-piece or one-piece styles while the designs are endless. From prints and frills, nautical tripes, colourful polka dots, etc. For little boys, you can choose a pair of shorts with one of his favourite characters or a pair with floral print. For a little baby is important to choose a swimsuit that doesn't exposed much of the skin. Baby's skin is very sensitive and thin so it can get sunburned very easily. Because of this, a one-piece design would be a perfect choice for your little princes.

  • Swimwear accessories



Along with the swimsuit, it is a good idea to consider some accessories like a hat and rash guards. The hat will keep the child's face and neck protected from the sun while the rush guards provide protection from skin irritation caused by wet-suits. Guard rush is also good for keeping your baby from getting chill after she/he gets out of the water. For a baby, you will also need a swim diaper. You can find them in two main types: disposable and reusable. They are elastic and unlike regular diapers, they prevent leakages.

Simple Guidelines for Dressing Business Casual

Blame it on the casual Friday or Silicon Valley, it seems that every other day of the workweek is becoming more casual and the new way of dressing for many companies.
