summer/beach gear for 6-9 month old

[Krisrich]

With the weather finally warming up, I'm looking for advice on beach/summer gear for my baby. Baby pools, sunshades/tents for the beach, floats, beach blankets, hats, sunglasses etc. Does anyone have any products that they love? Thanks!!!

I have not actually tried this myself, but I may want to get one sometime. Have you seen the Eureka solar shade (http://www.amazon.com/Eureka-Medium-Solar-Shade-Tent/dp/B000EQCW88/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1240585597&sr=8-5)? It comes in S, M, and L and people seem to like it. I would shop around for a better price though. Maybe sunnysports.com.
