We are taking a trip to Disney World in August and plan to spend a lot of time by the pool as it will be so hot. I need some recommendations for sunscreen for a 1 and 5 yr old. Bonus if I can use the same sunscreen so I don't have to buy separate tubes. I'm looking for something that won't sting if it gets in the eyes, and isn't too greasy. Thanks!

If you're going to be by the pool, I would suggest getting rash guards for them! It limits the amount of areas you have to worry about for sun screen!
For an actual product though, do you want mineral based (zinc/titanium) or chemical?

I'm having trouble finding a rash guard for the 1 yr old in the stores around me so I will probably order one online. As far as product, I don't have a preference- I just want one that's easy to apply and rub in

@glitterboots: for faces I like Neutrogeena Free and a clear Baby. For bodies there are lots of options.

We are using ThinkBaby for my 3 year old and 10 month old. Got both of them rash guards from Gap and Gymboree. Carters has a lot too.

I just spent some time in the sunscreen aisle this weekend and chose the Banana Boat Kids SPF 50 lotion in the tube. It's a mineral sunscreen but it's surprisingly easy to rub in.

@glitterboots: I recently bought my 16 mo old ON rash guards! Target also has a ton, long sleeve too!
We use badger sunscreen and like it a lot!

We're headed down next week and we're bringing Thinkbaby. We've used it two summers in a row and our LO has never burned.

We have used and liked well enough the Neutrogena Baby (I use the Neutrogena Dry Touch).
One I will advise against (strongly!) is the CeraVe baby sunscreen. It does not rub in. Poor LO looked like a dang ghost, it just is super white/chalky and thick. I would never buy it again.
