We are going to Six Flags Theme Park on Saturday and I am concerned about my 9m being way too hot. Even when we play outside for an hour or two I keep her under the shaded patio as much as possible. She always feels so warm afterwards! She runs HOT like her daddy.
I bought a sunshade extender for the stroller. I am contemplating the dream baby stroller fan although for the price there are mixed reviews.
Any other tips besides go under shade with her as much as possible?

Lots of liquids and I like misting sprays. I spray my kids frequently when we are out on hot days. I like the Evian spray, it's cheap and easy to find here, maybe you can find a similar product.

Will you be swimming? I would think cooling her off in the lake every once and a while would do the trick.

@Truth Bombs: hehe I adjusted my post. That's the name of the theme park. There is a water park too but it's technically a separate park.

@regberadaisy: OHHH OK, that makes a big difference! HA! I would definitely buy one of those misting fans so you can spritz her to cool her down.

Def grab a stroller fan! I have one we liked.. Not sure the brand (im not home). & a mister. We took DD to WDW when she was 8 months and those were key!

@sorrycharlie: so many of the ones on Amazon have crap reviews and are expensive!
@lamariniere: can I refill with regular tap water?

Even short walks in Texas can get really hot. I just bought a frogg togg cooling towel to put between LO and the stroller in the hope that it will help without getting him soaking wet.

@MrsLonghorn: @oliviaoblivia: the frog togg is awesome! How cold does it get and is it wet? Which ones do you have? Looks like there are different versions. I would like to use it as a stroller pad like @hilsy85: suggested. Thanks!

@regberadaisy: the frog togg arrives tomorrow from Amazon, so I don't know yet, but this was my pick after searching for solutions. The Geleeo doesn't work with my stroller, and is supposed to be refrigerated if it is more than 86 degrees out...it is always that hot here! I figure a frog togg will take up less space than keeping the Gleeo in my fridge. Will let you know how it works for us!

@regberadaisy: I've been eyeing the frogg togg too to put between her & carseat, and maybe even when I'm wearing her!
