6 Labor Day Beach Day Must-Haves You Can Grab at Walmart
Labor Day weekend is summer’s unofficial grand finale, and we’re all for squeezing in one more day of sunshine and snacks by the water.
But anyone who has taken little ones to the beach knows that a “simple beach day” can require a surprising amount of stuff. The trick? Pack the things that earn their spot in your beach bag—and skip the rest.
We rounded up six family favorites you can grab at Walmart to make your Labor Day beach day a little easier, a little less messy and a lot more fun.
1. Sun protection: Thinkbaby SPF 50 Sunscreen
First things first: sunscreen. Thinkbaby SPF 50 is a non-nano zinc oxide mineral sunscreen that's water-resistant for up to 80 minutes—exactly the kind of beach-bag staple you'll be glad you remembered once everyone hits the sand.

2. An easy pouch: Serenity Kids Berry & Butternut Smoothie
Beach days call for snacks that don't require much prep, refrigeration logistics or cleanup. Serenity Kids' Berry & Butternut Smoothie comes in a convenient 3.5-ounce pouch, is made with organic ingredients and includes grass-fed collagen. It's also dairy-free and intended for babies 6+ months.
Toss a couple in your bag for an easy option when hunger hits.

3. The crunchy snack: Mission MightyMe Nutty Puffs
Obviously, we're bringing the puffs. 😉
Mission MightyMe Nutty Puffs are made for snacking adventures. Walmart carries our Organic Peanut Butter, Organic Peanut Butter Strawberry, Organic Peanut Butter Banana, and Mixed Nut Butter Puffs.
They're easy to toss into the beach bag, easy for little hands to grab and a delicious way to keep nuts in the diet, early and often.

4. A little breeze: Itzy Ritzy Itzy Breeze Stroller Fan
Hot beach days + stroller naps aren't always the easiest combination. The Itzy Breeze stroller fan has flexible wraparound legs, a 360-degree swivel design and comes with a USB charging cable, making it an easy addition to the stroller for summer outings.
And while we're calling this a beach-day list, you'll probably keep using this one long after Labor Day.

Because snacks somehow taste better at the beach.
This adorable strawberry-shaped snack cup has handles sized for little hands and a soft silicone lid designed to help keep snacks contained. It's dishwasher safe and intended for ages 6 months and up.
Fill it with Nutty Puffs before you head out and you've got a snack setup made for wandering toddlers.
