Looking for a gift for the ocean lovers in your life? We've got you covered. Whether you're shopping for a child or an adult, we're here to help you find something they'll love.
As you might already know, Sande Kids™ supports Take 3 for the Sea. The idea is to take 3 pieces of rubbish with you when you leave the beach, waterway or other natural area to reduce plastic pollution. As a business we aim to bring awareness to the catastrophic amounts of plastic pollution in our oceans.
We chose to partner with Take3 as it’s a simple concept even our children understand. We donate $1 from each of our sales - this goes towards their mission to reduce plastic pollution through action on-ground and in-ocean, as well as education.
With Christmas fast approaching we want to encourage people to shop mindfully this year. We are thrilled to have been featured in the Ocean Lovers Christmas Gift Guide. Here you will find an amazing array of gifts from small ocean-conscious businesses...
Let’s start with the kids…you can never have enough beach toys! Afterall that’s why we designed the ultimate Beach Hauler™ beach bag to carry them all in…(wink!)
Our top picks for the kids are;
1. Aussie Silicone Beach Bucket Set by Wild and Wandering | $65.00
Our kids have played with this set endlessly. They're made from 100% silicone—free of nasties such as BPA, PVC, Phthalate, and lead. Silicone doesn't break down like plastic does—it's hard-wearing for hours upon hours of fun. A great option for beach toys!
- Wooden Turtle Bucket & Scoop Set by Explore Nook | $49.95
This beautiful bucket set is perfect for little hands. Made from sustainably sourced timber, it's another great option over plastic! Perfect for the beach or sand pit.
This is one of those toys that makes you smile just looking at it. It's a great way to keep kids entertained, and it's also perfect for the beach or bath. Made in Australia from 8 recycled milk bottles—how clever! It can even be recycled at the end of its life.
Beach days with kids are the best! But cold whingy kids aren’t so fun… We have personally used these wetties on our kids and they allow us to have fun beach days all year round. Made from premium neoprene, they are high-quality allowing us to hand-me-down them through our tribe.
And what’s a beach day without a snuggly beach towel for the littles to make their way back to the car in? These hooded towels are made from 17 to 26 recycled plastic bottles – how impressive is that?
This really is a gift for anyone... this is our beautiful Sand Brush made from sustainably sourced rubberwood with a combination of jute and coconut fibre bristles. It’s Fairtrade, handmade by talented artisans in Sri Lanka.
It swiftly sweeps sand off kids, adults, pets, beach toys, surfboards, car upholstery and carpet. It’s the perfect gift for the Dad who likes to keep the car sand-free. Also perfect for those living the van life.
A few more for us adults;
It's time to get your morning cup of coffee and head down to the beach with the groms… Pottery For The Planet coffee cups are beautifully hand-crafted and perfect for your early morning brew. Their mission is to reduce the staggering number of disposable coffee cups going into landfill or ending up in our oceans each year.
Who says the practical poncho is only for the kids? Perfect for the surfer in your life, these gorgeous ponchos are made from soft, quick-drying Turkish Cotton. We’ve got this one on Dad’s wish list!
Perfect for the barrel-lover in your life. Based off this guy – there is surely loads of fun to be had! The awesome thing about these handplanes is that they are eco-friendly, made form recycled ocean plastic recovered directly from Aussie beaches.
A fellow Northern Beaches business, Manly Sprits, donates $5 from every bottle of their limited release gin to the Marine Conservation Society of Australia. Don’t mind if we do…
Happy shopping!...
