    Reuse plastic food containers and make “snack bottles” out of them.

    Squeaky Clean

    Covered in sand? Just remove it with baby powder.

    Ouch!

    Have sunburn? Make aloe vera ice cubes by pouring the gel into trays and freezing them.

    Stay Tidy!

    Use a fitted sheet with beach bags or coolers in the corners to keep sand out.

    Avoid 3rd Degree Burns
