Kids sun protection suits?
Hello,
anyone know best place in Perth to buy those suits the kids wear for sunprotection. They usually com in all in ones or shorts and t shirt set. For playing at the beach etc.
Ive got kids and want to get some, especially for the toddler.
Or am I better off getting them in the UK/Europe?

We Bought ours over In OZ. There was not a problem finding places that stocked them.
They even had them at a few markets we went to.
We had an all in one that cost about $50.

As tabby says all the supermarkets have them usually start cropping up around spring time. I get them for my 4 year old and Big W charge around $18 for an all in one suit. Surf shops will obviously cost more.

not sure if they have them in WA, but in Sydney there are shops run by cancer council that unsuprisingly have many items to protect you and the little uns from the sun. Also good to get some advice too.

yes they do but the all in one rash suits are about 3 times the price. when the kids are small the ones from Big W or Target do the job equally as well as they usually end up being wrecked by the sea water or pool water.

Re: Kids sun protection suits?
Thanks,
Think I will be heading to Big W or Target then!
Agree with Northern Bird, toddlers clothes last five minutes so dont want to spend too much.
Thanks for input everyone

Re: Kids sun protection suits?
Don't bother buying them in the UK, they are everywhere in Perth. All the major stores sell them, KMart, BigW, Target even some of the larger Coles stores will stock them too. And there's plenty of smaller shops which stock then, if you're south of the river there's always a load of them at the Canning Vale markets on a Sunday too.
