Just for days out at park and places over summer.

Ideally need a large family sized one that 'pops up' and folds down easily into a bag or something as will need to come with us on bus/ train etc.

Thnaks!

Why do you need a sun tent for a day out at the park? Confused

TotorosOcarina · 02/04/2011 17:12

Because we will spend hours there having picnics and I will have a new born, a toddler , and a 4 and 6 year old and I don't want them to get burnt?!

Plus days out at the beach and stuff.

Why wouldn't I need a sun tent?!

True! Just wondered, really...had never occured to me to take one to the park.
We were at the Camping & Caravan show at NEC, but I think we only saw the ordinary size ones - so probably not big enough.
Sorry - didn't mean to come across as rude!

Lol, no not rude!

Just don't want to leave the little ones in the sun to long, and the LO still has naps so will be good for her to go in the tent :)

Decathlon do lots of different sized pop up tents. We have this one

It regularly accommodates DH 6ft3, me 5ft9, DD almost 7, DS 4 but big and our smallish dog - in the rain on the beach Grin Very easy to carry, erect and fold back down into bag.

Or they sell 'proper' pop up tents rather than shelters, and they are still easy to sling over your shoulder. Friends have this one
