Pinky McKay's Johnsons Baby Powder Tips for the Beach

Sandcastles, sunscreen and sandy feet are all part of a day of the beach but with JOHNSON’S® baby powder, hard-to-remove sand is a thing of the past. 

A simple dust of JOHNSON’S® baby powder soaks up the moisture on you and your child’s skin, making sticky sand easy to brush off. Using JOHNSON’S® baby powder will keep your car, home and your children sand free and comfortable all summer long. 

After a day at the beach, dry off your child as much as possible and shake the excess sand from towels, clothes and shoes. Place a small amount of baby powder in the palm of your hand and rub onto their skin. The baby powder will quickly absorb moisture and the sand will fall away.

JOHNSON’S® Baby Powder and resident parenting expert, Pinky McKay shares five quick tips to use as a check list before you and the family head out and enjoy the sunny, summer weather:

  1. Make sure you pack a bag with enough protective clothing, water and healthy snacks before heading out to the beach

  2. When it comes to hydration, children need similar fluid levels to adults, however they are more vulnerable to the effects of dehydration. They have a lower capacity for sweating and as a result, they overheat faster than adults. So encourage children to drink up

  3. Have your child take hydration breaks every 15-20 minutes while playing outside or participating in a sports activity

  4. Take a picnic including nutritious snacks such as cut fruit, sandwiches and cheese slices to help replenish energy levels and foods with a high water content including oranges, watermelon, celery, lettuce, grapefruit, grapes and cucumbers

  5. Pack JOHNSON’S Baby Powder and high factor sunscreen for every trip to the beach to keep your children safe from the sun and sand free this summer
