UV swimwear lets girls play it safe, and adorable, in the sun.
Hooray, it's unofficially summer this week! That mean fun days at the beach, and for parents, the grand hunt for UV swimwear and the perfect sunblock to keep our kids safe.

My daughter is not the yellow polka dot bikini kind of gal anyway; she'll be digging in the sand until high tide, which is why we're glad to find a brand that provides some needed coverage.

[don't miss an exclusive discount after the jump!]
I am very excited to have found another adorable collection of sun-safe UV swimwear for toddlers and girls, from smart company Girls4Sport.  
These suits are made for activity, not posing. Blocking 98% of UV rays and with a SPF of 50+, the USA-made designs will get you through the summer hopefully without the need for aloe gel. Plus you can pair those super cute board shorts with either long or short-sleeved rash guard tops.

I have to say, the fabrics are way more adorable in person than on the website. I'm definitely impressed. Also don't miss some amazing deals in the clearance section. So get the beach bag full of snacks ready and sunscreen ready and waiting by the front door, mamas. It's that time. -Stephanie M
