We’ve tested them all summer long. We’ve fallen in love. These are the products you need to know about – the five best-kept secrets of summer!
Why Has No One Told Me?
Whether or not you’re ready for summer to end, it feels as though the brisk air is getting ready to move in. While I am sad to see it go, I must say that this summer taught me a lot!
But seriously, how come no one told me?
Sometimes there comes a product that just makes things easier. It solves a problem. When things like this come along, I’d like to know about them – wouldn’t you?
This summer I came across five products that made all the difference for our family. The best part is, they’re not JUST for summer!

The 5 Best Products of Summer – What Are They?
Ready? You need to know about these!
1 . DryFins Swimwear – helps stop chaffing.
I have a very sensitive son who absolutely adores swimming. Although every time he would get done swimming, he would complain that his legs hurt from the bathing suit rub. This suit solved that problem for us.
Here’s what DryFins did – they eliminated the netting! Inside these trunks is a silky liner that fits snug for comfort. Why is this a new thing? It makes perfect sense, doesn’t it?
DryFins come in youth and adult sizes too – so nobody is complaining.
2. Meori Organization Boxes – keep clutter-free on the road.
This summer we spent a lot of time on the road and our Meori always came with us. This foldable carrying box made hauling snacks easier as we could load it up and then fold it down once everything was unloaded or eaten. Talk about better storage space in the car!
It even came with an optional cooler insert and an insert that held forks, plates, and other picnic items in place.
3. WindPouch – watch the stars in comfort.
I never knew why I would need a product like this until I tried it. With just a slight learning curve we found ourselves laying out under the stars and watching the fireworks on our own private inflatable couch by WindPouch. I’m not sure there is anything better.
This winter, I plan to bring this baby inside for pop up movie nights with friends! Sounds fun, right? I’ll let you know if it works.
4. Oeno – which drink is mine?
I’m just going to say it now – I am a germaphobe. If I set my glass down and can’t remember which is mine, I won’t go back to it. Oh, how much I hate wasting anything!! This was one of the biggest reasons I fell in love with these wine sleeves from Oeno – at the party, each guest gets a different color sleeve! It’s brilliant! Another reason is that they have serious skills in outfitting a home bar. Can you say holiday parties?? I’m ready!
5. CucinaPro – homemade waffle cones.
What screams summer more than a freshly scooped ice cream cone? Not much in our opinion! That’s why this summer we kept our CucinaPro waffle maker handy! We made cones for our creamy homemade ice cream and tried out a few new recipes of our own.
What will we make with it going into the fall? Be sure to subscribe to our blog to find out!
