Summer is coming and we are very excited! We plan to do a lot of activities this year because it’s a good age to expose Sean to new things. He loves seeing new places and experiencing new things. It’s such a delight to see his excitement whenever we go to somewhere new – especially if it has water in it! He is totally crazy about water. I hope that he becomes a good swimmer unlike his mom :P.
Sean is fortunate enough to be able to review a complete set of swimwear from Platypus Australia. Platypus Australia is a swimwear company that offers high quality and fashionable UV Protective Swimwear, Girl’s and Boy’s Rash Guards, Kids’ bathing suits and Sun Protective Swimwear, including matching Beachwear and Rash Shirts, also know as Rashies, Sun Shirts, Swim Shirts and UV Shirts. They have products from sizes 00-14 years Their outfits have a UV protection rating of 50+ which is perfect at protecting babies delicate skin. All their swimwear offers maximum sun protection blocking out 97.5% of harmful ultraviolet radiation.
We received a Rashguard , Boardshorts and a Hat from the Hibiscus Line.
My baby is only 2 but I opted to get the size 4 because kids grow so fast so I decided that it’s better to have a size that’s a little bit bigger .
Verdict: Happy Home and Family highly recommends Platypus Australia Swimwear.

Those clothes sure cover him up and he is a doll! Quite the model. It is nice to know that they are protected from the sun.
I love these! They are so cute.
I think these are adorable and well made!
I have been looking for super cute rash guards for my daughter. Thanks for sharing this company with us!
Love the Graphic Hibiscus.
Love the pictures and nice to know the product is worth every penny. Thank you.
such cute swimwear! i love it!
Love this swimwear! Such bright colours and like the UV protection!
Australians know their sun protection, so I would venture to guess that any products from them would be good quality and effective against the sun’s harmful rays.
We live by the beach and I would feel so safe knowing my son had on UV Protective Swimwear. Plus the swimwear is soooo cute!
Wow complete outfit and those pieces are cool! Looks good on your son <3
These are adorable…and I love the idea of a kiddo being able to get some sun protection, as well as look sweet too 🙂
This would be great for my grandsons…they have fair skin anyway and we just moved to the Gulf coast last summer. Being so close to the beach these would be very worthwhile investments.
I love that the outfit has such great sun protection!
very stylish love it
this is an awesome giveaway ty
Being a nurse I realize the importance of the UV protection, these suits are awesome!
The UV protection is outstanding, it is so good to know a company is tackling this issue.
Those look like really nice suits. I too, like to buy some of my kids clothes a size or two bigger if I can get away with it. It is a shame they grow so fast and burn through the outfits ,espacially seasonal items.
I’d love some of this swimwear for my daughter! We moved to Florida last spring and we go to the beach as often as possible. I always worry about getting enough sunscreen on her. Swimwear like this would help put my mind at ease.
The fact that this swimwear is UV Protected is a HUGE plus for me!! Anything to protect my child from those harmful rays of sun. Awesome company you have!!
Cute baby Sean 🙂 He’s enjoying so much ^^ Nice Suit 🙂 Summer time!
Nice swimwear! ? it!
How adorable is that! Love the skull n the back lol

How cute. Sounds like a great product.
Cute outfits
your tot sure looks like he was thoroughly enjoying his new summer get up! 😉
I love this swimwear. It is great because it is comfy for the kids and it is something they can spend the entire day in. We spend all summer outside so they need good sun protection clothing
These look so cute!!
Helping my little ones keep safe from uv rays is a great way to help them from getting skin cancer which does run in the family.
i just love these they seem great and would love to try these
cute swim wear
I love the bright colors! & he looks so comfy while playing in the water. Definitely a HUGE plus!
I would like to win kids sunsets ss boys sonic waves
So cute I love that they have UV protection and that’s the style I just picked out. Love the colors.
I’d feel confident knowing my kids’ skin was protected in these swimsuits. And they are also very fashionable!
This swimwear looks amazing. I love the benefit of sun protection in styles that my kid wouldn’t be embarassed to wear.
I love the pics!! I also like that you bought a couple sizes bigger. I always do that also for my 11 year old. He is already 5ft9inches and steady growing so I never know what size he will be in which season. Thank you for the review!!
They have some really cute suits…how could I pick just one?
Loving the Youth Singlet Kini
The Platypus sun protection swimwear is really cute on your little boy. I really like the cute little skull n crossbones on the back, my nephew is PIRATE CRAZY!! The suits that have SPF are great, my sister used to have one for herself, they really do help. Thanks for the great pix and review.
What a super product you reviewed for us. Things have come so far since I raised my children. Should I be lucky enough to win, I will give this to my granddaughter. They have an in-ground pool and she spends about eight hours a day in it. This would sure make me feel like she was much safer. Thanks!!!!
Stylish and protective can’t beat that.
These seem like great products. I would love to get something for my son!
What a great product. Not just for swimwear but also just for being in the backyard playing when it’s sunny out.
I would love to have one for my daughter. It covers a good amount of her skin, and she is more protected. Sounds like a winner to me. I lke the boys suits too> They are appropriate length.
The uv protection I think is best. All around you gave a great description of the suits. Im convinced that my daughter has got to have this suit.
I love these, and the pic of your little boy in the steel bucket is adorable
Great review! I love the hibiscus set he is wearing. And what great fun it looks like he’s having splashing around in that bucket! I have to remember that for when the snow finally melts away here! I know my son would love splashing around in a boy size “pool” too!
I love the colors and he looks very comfortable in them. And I like that they have a variety of sizes for all kids!
Super Cute!
that is a gorgeous swimwear for your son, I want 2 pairs for my girls too 🙂
Seems like an awesome product. How did it hold up to being washed for the first time?
I love the colors and the products seem well made!
OMG that outfit you did a review on is absolutely adorable. My grandson was just born Jan 11, 2013 and would be 6 months old by July. Would love that for him for the summer!!!
What a great idea! I love these. Protection from the sun is so important.
keep them safe from uv rays
oh that nice 🙂
It is really lovely! ^^
International GIVEAWAY! 3/4 winners 😉

These would be perfect for my kids to wear at summer camp, where they are responsible for their sunblock application (or lack thereof!).
My grands need these

Great looking products and styles with the protection of uv how great!
My kids are sensitive to sunlight, like I am, so these would be perfect.
These have become so important in our family because of my daughter’s injuries. Thank you for providing these!
The UV protection is so important with the young vulnerable skin–as it is for all of us.
This gear sounds like the perfect thing to protect my son’s fair skin from the strong summer sun here in Nebraska! Sean looks super cute!!
The suits with uv protection and their adorable styles and designs are great!
I love that my daughter is protected from the sun and the suits are so adorable
Love swimsuits like this because we spend all day in the swimming pool and sun out here in Vegas! It’s so important to have a quality swimsuit with UV protection!
I love the look of this swimwear and that it offers uv protection.
Wonderful, practical and attractive kids’ swimwear!
i love the boardshorts and sunshirts. they are modest for a tween girl and i think that’s important
My little man would love the Baby Bucket Hat
Great review! living in the south sun protection is very important for us. It’s great the uv protection these suits have, and they are adorable.
This is cute swim wear, exactly what my son likes. SUMMER IS COMING SO HE NEED A NEW ONE. I hope to win here.
My son still have light baby skin so these shirts and shorts are a must have!
These swimsuits are really cute and I like that both the boy’s and girl’s suits have SPF rated tops.
Being a boater a important to keep them covered up in and having two young children it is very important to keep them covered and these make that easy and fun. I use this stuff with my boys all summer and it keeps their sensitive skin safe from the sun 🙂
Love
I love that these suits give little ones extra protection from the sun – both my Grandkids are very fair, so they need all the protection they can get!!! Thanks for the cinfo….
love the patterns
looks very cute
Great products protecting kids from skin cancer early!
Great thing, these shirts are. We went to the lake and even though I was applying sunblock often, my son still got 2nd degree burns from the sun. He is so sensitive so these shirts are great from protecting the kids like him.
Love the prints, every item is adorable! Great review.
bellissimi!
These are so great by allowing the kids to be outside safely.
I love these swimsuits! My granddaughter needs one!
I love having UV protection for my kids when they are outside so these are great!
Suits are adorable. Cannot beat the sun protection
this is great!!!! my kid loves the water.. perfect for him…
These look so wonderful and would be great for the beach!
Great idea! Do they make these for big people. I have a friend who sun-sensitive!
This blog is very informative, the items seem very useful.
I like that there is UV protection without all the chemicals on their skin!
These are so adorable for the boys and the girls. Great protection from the sun. I have 5 grand kids, so I would love to win. Thanks! 🙂
These clothes are not only adorable, but would make me feel good as well, knowing she is wearing sun protective clothing!
My friend got me hooked on these swim outfits for my son. I never thought about the effects of the sun on his back because he would swim with just his trunks on. Now he wears the shirt with his trunks for all outdoor things.
I love that there is UV protection.. It is especially important for an infant!
What a cute outfit. and a WONDERFUL idea. we must teach our kids how important it is to protect their skin at all times. GREAT IDEA and styles..
Great review and great outfit for kids!

I love the UV protection…thats the most important factor to me in swimware for children
What a cutie! He looks comfy in his new swimwear :). Though we aren’t close to any beaches we always have at least a little wading pool in the summer plus family’s pools and public venues we visit to keep cool in the summer heat. Though the the more strappy styles of swimwear are cute they are not practical for protecting a child’s delicate skin. I appreciate very much that the fabric used for these is UPF 50+! That would be great for protecting the shoulders and back that otherwise don’t see much sun and would scorch quickly.
Love the stylish sunprotection
that it so cute and glad to know I am not the only Mom that still orders up in size
Their swimwear looks like what we have been looking for! Thanks for sharing!
I love the fact that this swim wear looks like it’s a real quality proudct.
Like the uv protection
I love all the UV protection these swimwear pieces give!1
I love the SPF protection of the fabric on all of their products. I love the girls two piece tankini! It is super adorable!
So stinkin’ cute!!
I love these for my son!
he seem ot like the out fit and haveing fun wow
thank you for sharing. it is great to know that other moms understand how fast a toddler can grow and know its best to order up in size. The colors are awesome and your little man so adorable and looks like he is having a blast. Would love to get this outfit for my little one.
I really like the style of swimsuit, the design and the colors I love, but what I like is that it has UV protection, it is never too early to start demasido protect our children’s skin.
I love the SPF protection of the fabric on all of their products. I love the girls two piece tankini!
I am so happy that it has UV protection
Okay I thought I liked the sonic wave pattern better….but after seeing the pictures of your little on in the others pattern..I may have changed my mind! So adorable. My little one is very very VERY fair complected just like me! We could really use this swimwear! Thanks
This review came at the perfect time, we are going to the beach with our daughter who will only be a little over a year at the time, this company is on my beach shopping list for her. Thank you 🙂
sono bellissimi!
Too cute and so happy in his swimwear! My grand kids live in Florida and can always use some protective swimwear. This looks great!
Such a cute swimwear set! You are smart for ordering bigger sizes! I always have to get at least 1 size larger for my daughter, so that the rash guard “neck” goes over her head easily.. she panics when clothes do not go over her head very easily.
So cute! *.*
Like the uv protection =)
your little guy looks like he is really having a great time– I like the way the swim wear fits– not a baggy bottom like you get with some swimwear–great review–and the color choices are great
It’s the first time I’ve read about a UV protective swim wear! very nice for kids this summer! Mom’s need not worry if they stay long on the beach.
I like this product because it looks comfy but also protects at the same time
I never knew their was such a product till now, awesome idea and nice designs.
My family and I are going to the beach this summer and it’s my two year old daughter’s first time going and I’m so worried about the sun and her getting burnt so this would be perfect for us.
that’s SO awesome that it has UV protection, i’m finding that not a whole lot of swimwear has that as an option anymore, i thought i used to see it “built in” as a default? definitely going to be keeping an eye on this brand thanks for putting them out there!
Love these items.
These are awesome for children who love to play outside all day. Great protection.
I love these products! I am always concerned about my daughter getting too much sun when we’re at the beach or pool.
How cute my daughter would just love one of these and what a plus to be protected from UV with it.
very cute and the swimsuit looks bright and colorful as well.
Love these suits!
For the past few years we have been investing in rashguards to protect our 4 boys sensitive skin from the sun. I think their designs are adorable. Glad your son enjoyed the set. I’m sure mine will enjoy theirs too
I really like that they have such a high UV rating!
I like the idea of my grandaughter being protected from harmful uv’s plus these are really cute!
I really like your product my favorite is Style: PK64T-13 – Kids Tankini w Frill
He looks adorable in that! The color is great for him and love the stylishness.
I love the added UV protection.
How adorable! And the swimwear looks both stylish and comfortable 🙂 !
sooo cute!!
Kids Slim Boardshort
What great swimwear! My kids are in the pool everyday and they would be perfect.
I love that the swimwear is so stylish and gives great sun protection at the same time.
Platypus Australia children’s swimwear looks very nice. Thanks for the interesting and informative review!
This looks so so cute! I’ve never seen UV protection swimsuits for kids. My little nephew in Melbourne should benefit from this.
