It gives LO plenty of room to wander around and play, but still be in the shade. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beach-tent-shade-recommendations#post-921220 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 06:49:14 +0000 T.H.O.U. 921220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got a baby tent and it hasn't worked out so well at the beach. She would rather be playing or sitting with us not in a tent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beach-tent-shade-recommendations#post-921182 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 05:42:42 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 921182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We picked up a 10 x 10 canopy from Walmart and we love it. (I suggest putting it together at home and then storing it w/ the cover on to save you time when you get there). We bought some mats and big towels to put under it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beach-tent-shade-recommendations#post-921115 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 01:05:37 +0000 cranberryapple 921115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have a Costco near you? I have a tent like this: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Push-instant-Beach-Tent-Sunshelter/dp/B002A966Z2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1373522509&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=beach+tent" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Push-instant-Beach-Tent-Sunshelter/dp/B002A966Z2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1373522509&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=beach+tent</a> and it is THE BEST! I was coveting that tent for 3 years and finally got it! I love how easy it is to set up! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beach-tent-shade-recommendations#post-920626 Wed, 10 Jul 2013 18:52:42 +0000 MrsF 920626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: @chopsuey119: @Chillybear: Thanks girls!

Be got ours at BJs for like $50. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beach-tent-shade-recommendations#post-919044 Wed, 10 Jul 2013 10:28:29 +0000 chopsuey 919044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a superbrella!

But I like that there are mesh sides and a curtain and UV treated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/beach-tent-shade-recommendations#post-918993 Wed, 10 Jul 2013 10:16:58 +0000 MrsF 918993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're headed to cape cod at the end of July and it'll be M's first beach vacation! Anyone have a beach tent / umbrella they love? I think it needs to be big enough for us to sit in there with her because she's not so big on the independent play. Also, at 9 months she's still eating EVERYTHING so I'm not so sure about a tent with a floor vs. being able to play in the sand. Thoughts? Recommendations? </p>
