sand in uv clothing/sun suit - how do you get it out?!

[mummybear25]

Hi

Has anyone discovered how to get sand out of the sun suits (uv protective clothing) little ones wear on the beach? DD has been on the beach recently and despite a couple of washes her suit still has sand caught in the material. I'm guessing that's not ideal, or am I worrying about nothing?! Thanks for reading.

Sorry I don't know, but I read on here that if you rub talc on their skin then the sand doesn't stick! Will be trying it soon!

I find that you need to stretch small parts of the fabric and then the sand almost brushes out once it is dry. Other than that I keep one outfit for beach and one for pool- but then we are in the water practically every day between may and september!! (live in Cyprus!)
