no i don't know these kids.i was looking through the one step ahead catalog today and i came across this item.
THE SUN SMARTIES COVERALL
The coverall with 98% UV protection! Sunblock wears off, and kids won't stay in the shade for long. The solution? Our coverall, with built-in UV protection that blocks the sun wherever they go! Made of lightweight, breathable nylon, with a Coolmax lined hood and shoulder panel for added ventilation. Quick-drying (so an impromptu swim is no problem!).
ok ... seriously. does anyone really buy these?? would any of you really put your kids in one of these "sun suits" when you were at the beach? (or admit it now after i have completely made fun of them. ha ha!)
the only thing i can envision these being used for is a SNL skit.
ok i lied, i can see how it could be used for a child who is allergic to the sun and this is the only possible way that they can go out. HOWEVER that is not how it is advertised. (if it was advertised that way i would be acting completely different towards it.)
i got a laugh out of it today and just had to share :)
i hope it made you smile too.
and if you are looking at it and thinking "wow ... i would LOVE one of those"
a. don't tell me.
b. buy 3 so you can get a free "sun check wrist meter" as well.

i'd totally buy the sun suit if they had matching accessories to cover the hands and face. but no way am i going to buy that cute suit and then have to pair it with a dopey looking hat and un-matching gloves! talk about looking stupid on the beach! although the "sun check wrist meter" is tempting :)
all 3 of my kids are wearing them right now. with the reflection of the sun off the snow, you just never know!
I've already ordered a couple of them for my kids. I asked if they had any in adult sizes, but sadly, no.
