Children's sun-protection company Protect-a-bub (they sell UV swimwear and stroller sun shades) is clearing out their UPF-50+ sunwear for babies and toddlers. ("UPF" is a measure of both UVA and UVB protection.) But you won't see the sale on their site. More on that in a second.

We haven't tried the Protect-a-bub brand, but we have used UPF sunwear last year for Z and loved it. It cut down on the amount of sunscreen we needed to put on her (and thus the amount of time she had to stand still looking longingly at the pool). Their long-sleeved shirts are also great for outdoor play and activities like gardening.

If you want to order these suits (sizes 0-8) the process is a little unusual: Email them at info@protectabub.com with the subject line "swimsuit." Include your name and ship-to address along with what you want to order, and they'll get back to you with payment instructions. They are estimating $5 shipping for the first item and $1 for each additional item. At $9 per suit (before shipping), it's still 40% of the list price of $25-$29 even with the shipping added. You can also get the long sleeved shirt - great for outside play time or gardening - for $9 or any of the hat for $6. Stock up now for future years.
