We have planned a lot of fun outdoor activities this summer. TJ and I are going to be going to the playground, swimming in the kiddie pool and taking walks. With all of the outdoor sun exposure I wanted to be sure TJ is protected from the harmful UV rays. As many of you are aware, TJ has extremely sensitive skin so finding products that won’t cause TJ to break out is fairly difficult. I was ready to begin the search for a sunblock and bug spray,that is very gentle yet effective,when I came across a website that specializes in natural products for outdoor play.
All Terrain began because the founder, Todd Hakanson, was hiking when his bug spray leaked inside of his backpack. The bug spray contained DEET and ate through his backpack and even melted the keys on his calculator. He researched the harmful effects of DEET and became so concerned about what he learned that he developed his own all-natural insect repellent. All Terrain’s products have all natural ingredients and their packaging is made from recycled material, recyclable and/or biodegradable.
All Terrain sent us Kid’s Herbal Armor Spray, Kids Eczema Cream and their AquaSport SPF 30 sunblock. Right before the products arrived, TJ and I were playing outside on the deck. Sometime during that time TJ was bit by a bug and had a huge gub bite on his upper arm. We used the Kid’s Herbal Armor spray the next time we were out and I didn’t notice a single bug bite. As a mom who is very concerned about the safety of insect spray use on toddlers, I can rest easy knowing that every ingredient in the Kid’s Herbal Armor Spray is all natural. Not only is the product 100% DEET free, it has been clinically proven to be 100% effective for over two hours, 95.8% effective for three hours and 77.1% effective for four hours. My niece is highly-allergic to mosquito bites. If she is bit by one her face swells up. This product is perfect for her and my son who also suffers from eczema. The repellent is gentle on the skin and TJ has yet to break out in a rash because of it.
We have also had great success with the AquaSport SPF 30 sunblock. I opted to go with the adult version of the AquaSport instead of the kid version because I really needed something strong for myself. I am extremely fair-skinned. I burn easily in the sun. TJ and I both used the sunblock and neither of us were burned and neither of us broke out in a rash (which is saying something). I love that we can both use the same formula of sunblock so I don’t have to pack several different tubes when we go out.

Thank You SO much for sharing this. My daughter also has very sensitive skin and living in the desert, we have a lot of bugs, so insect repellent is a must have here.
I hear ya, we go out to Idaho every summer to visit my parents and the bugs will eat you alive if you let them. Thanks for the comment.
