I usually buy my kids some type of clothing
item for Christmas. Living back in the Midwest has its challenges. I can’t buy
the outfits like I did when we were living in the southwest. At least not in the
wintertime. Fallon’s 7th birthday party was themed around pet adoption,
so she has a soft spot for animals. When Lazy Turtle contacted me, I thought
this was a great way for me to expand on that theme. You see Lazy Turtle isn’t
just clothes, they actually give a portion of their proceeds to help Sea
Turtles.
According to Lazy Turtle “Sea turtles are among the most
important indicators of the health of the world’s marine ecosystems.” Currently
six out of the seven sea turtle species are considered threatened or
endangered. This is something that I did not know.
The creators of Lazy Turtle took this information and did something
about it. They created an apparel line in Naples, FL that takes some of the
proceeds and gives it back to those turtles and Save Our Shells. You can buy knowing
are not only going to look good at the beach, or in their regular clothes as
well.
10% of
proceeds are donated to the Sea Turtle Conservancy. They are the worlds most
respected sea turtle conservation group. Their goal is to try to save the sea
turtles from eminent extinction through rigorous science-based conservation.
Fallon
received 2 t-shirts, the Reef Tee, Juju Tee and the AJ Hoodie. I had them
ordered a little big as I wanted to make sure she could grow into them a
little.
I love the
material for the kids as it needs to be soft. What’s even better than me loving
the material, is Fallon loves the material. If it’s scratchy that’s all I hear,
and she doesn’t want to wear it.
Being that
we do live in the Midwest I love that Lazy Turtle sells more than just swim wear.
This way others can support them as well.
The only thing I’m sad
about is I don’t have a beach to take my Honu beach tote to. I mean, we are
going to a resort soon, but that’s not the same as a sandy beach in FL. It’s
part of their ALOHA Collection. What’s great is that it’s splash proof and will
keep everything nice and dry.
There are three pockets,
the main one and then one exterior and one interior. It measures 20” across the
top and 14.5” wide.
Take a look at all of Lazy Turtle’s products and see if
they have anything you or your family may like. Could be perfect Christmas presents.
Remember, a portion of everything you buy helps save the turtles.
