July flew by in a blur. We were on the road for 3 weekends and are currently in Cape Cod at my parents' house, enjoying one last summer hurrah before it's back to school! How is summer winding down already? My kids head back in less than three weeks, and while I have mixed feelings about it, they are so excited for a new year!
July’s best sellers are a mix of back-to-school prep, family fun, and self-care. These finds are the perfect combination to carry us into a new season. Don't forget you can always check out the complete best sellers list on Amazon!

While Wet Sunscreen Spray
Sunscreen battles? Over. This spray applies right onto wet skin, so there's no toweling off, no waiting around, no losing one more minute of pool time. I spray it on, rub it in, and we're done in 30 seconds flat — the fastest part of any beach day, hands down.
Rashguard Bathing Suit
My youngest basically lives in this suit, and I don't blame her. She hates having sunscreen applied (we've all been there), so this one does double duty — cute enough that she'll actually wear it, protective enough that I worry a little less.
Catch and Release Bucket
This bucket has quietly become the star of every beach trip. My kids love safely and carefully catching (and releasing) whatever little critter they find — hands-on wildlife lessons I didn't even have to plan.
North Face Backpack
My older elementary schoolers love this one, and it's easy to see why: it's durable, roomy enough for everything they insist on carrying, and built to survive far more than a typical school year throws at it.
Girls Pajamas
You know the pajama brand everyone's obsessed with right now, the one with the price tag to match? These give you the exact same look for way less — soft, cute, and nobody will know the difference. 💗
Travel Night Light
I never travel without this. You never know how much (or how little) light a hotel room or Airbnb is going to have, and this little nightlight takes the guesswork — and the late-night stubbed toes — out of the equation.
Chewable Sleep Supplements
I've tried more sleep supplements than I'd like to admit over the years, and this one has, by far, worked the best for me.
Bust Dust
Summer heat means one thing nobody talks about enough: sweat in places you really don't want it. This talc-free powder (hi, aloe, lavender, and chamomile) goes on with a no-mess pump and keeps things dry all day. Not glamorous, but genuinely one of my favorite self-care finds of the summer.
Welly Bandages
My youngest is allergic to most bandages on the market, so scraped knees used to mean a whole ordeal. These were a clear winner for her — no reaction, no drama, just an actual bandage that stays put and doesn't leave her skin worse off than the scrape did.
