Summer Picnic Essentials List

What do you see when you imagine summer? Sunshine and grass? A beach and crashing waves? Laughter with adults and outings with relatives?

We're sure your thoughts will be on the perfect summer picnic. It's one of the most exciting things to do during the summer. The real fun is spending time getting ready and going on an adventure where the kids can eat al fresco. Whether you're spending your summer vacation close to home or traveling abroad, there are plenty of options for a great summer picnic.

Maybe you're heading to a green park or planning a summer trip to Dubai. Whatever your choice, hosting a successful summer picnic will require a must-have list. From the right accessories to water bottles for the kids to lunch boxes that keep food warm, we know exactly what you'll need.

Here's a list you'll want to check to avoid situations that could ruin your trip:

• The Perfect Carrier: As beautiful as a traditional picnic basket is, it's not always practical enough for a successful summer picnic. Depending on your destination, you may find yourself traveling between long periods of time during which food needs to stay warm or cold, fresh, and popular until lunchtime. This is where you need a reliable and durable solution, preferably one that's insulated, offers extra storage, and ample overall capacity. This is where Citron's new insulated picnic bag from the 2022 collection is ideal.
• Water Bottle: Water is an essential item no matter where you head on your summer outing. Conserving water will ensure everyone stays healthy and happy for as long as possible, whether you're indoors or outdoors. We have a wide range of water bottles at Citron, suitable for all ages and available in a variety of styles.
• Sunscreen: Even if you don't plan to spend a lot of time in the sun, you need to apply sunscreen in advance and carry it with you wherever you go. Protecting yourself from harmful UV rays with a high-quality sunscreen can make a huge difference for you and your children. Here's a review of some of the best brands for children .
• Sun hat: Leaving home during your summer vacation without one would be a disaster. A sun hat not only helps protect your child from the sun's heat, but it also keeps the sun's rays away from their beautiful little eyes. If this hat is special enough, your children will want to keep it for a long time, and you won't have to worry about how long they spend in the hot sun. Make sure to get a hat with a wide brim and maybe even one with a chin strap to prevent it from falling off.
• Snack Box: Every parent knows how frustrating it is for their kids to be hungry, so it's essential to pack enough food for an entire summer outing. No matter what adventures you have planned, if those tummies start growling, tears will inevitably follow, and that doesn't look good in pictures, does it? Make sure you have a selection of nutritious snacks that can be served at a moment's notice to keep your kids happy. You can even use one of our leak-proof kid-friendly snack boxes to include a variety of flavors to suit every mood.
