I know, mamas. Spring has sorely disappointed us and we’re all feeling a little ripped off when looking at the calendar! I live in Saskatchewan and our summers are short to begin with (snow in May is not unheard of, though not at all welcome!)
Our cool spring just means we’re going to have to take full advantage of summer 2013! No staying inside the house when the weather is warm, no opting for an air conditioned restaurant when a backyard picnic is an option. And definitely no indoor pool days when the beach is calling. We need to appreciate the summer we get to it’s absolute fullest this year. Can I get a first-pump heck-yeah?!
To celebrate our upcoming summer, I have an awesome sampling opportunity for my readers!
I just received Banana Boat® Natural Reflect™ Kids sunscreen lotion SPF 50 (it’s new in Canada!) and the timing actually couldn’t be better! My family is heading to Orlando in less than 2 weeks to the Disney Social Media Moms conference, and it’s forecast to be hot hot hot while we’re there.
Sunscreen will be an essential and the features of this sunscreen in particular have this mom sold:
Whether you’re off for a day at the beach or an in-city adventure with the kids, the new Banana Boat® Natural Reflect™ Kids sunscreen lotion provides the clinically proven protection mom loves, but is gentle enough for the most delicate – and sometimes finicky – skin.
The Natural Reflect™ Kids sunscreen lotion provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection, yet is Paraben, PABA and Oxybenzone-free, so parents can feel comfortable applying it on their kids. The pediatrician-tested sunscreen, made from 100% naturally sourced sunscreen ingredients, is also water resistant allowing for a tear- and sting-free sunscreen experience. The Natural Reflect™ Kids sunscreen is currently available at grocery, drug and mass retail outlets across Canada for approximately $11.99.

I would love to find something to new on my sons:)
Would love to try! I have 14 yr old, 13 yr old 11 use old and 2 yr old! All boys!!!! We go through so much sunscreen trying to if d me that isn’t slimey- and that doesn’t stink!!!!!
I’d like to try it with my little one 🙂
I would like to try it with my little one as we go outside ALOT and I find that some of the sunscreens we’ve tried are just too greasy and full of chemicals. I like the idea of trying a natural product and see how it stacks up to products we’ve already tried. Organic sunscreen is expensive! I’d like to see if this is a fair alternative.
I’d love to provide a review for this product!
I’d love to try this sunscreen as I am very sensitive to most sunscreens and it would be nice to find another option!
I’ve never tried any natural sunscreen before . Would love to give it a try.
Always looking for new products that work for our 5 yr old (and ourselves)
I like the fact that it is made from 100% naturally sourced sunscreen ingredients, need sunscreen protection that works for sensitive skin in this house so would love to try it and see if it works since a lot of them out there don’t
I would love to love to give it a try.
Would live to try this out. Son has sensitive skin and it’s hard to find good quality products.
I’d love to review this product. Getting kids into the habit of wearing sun screen before they are badly burnt (even once) is something I am trying really hard to instill with my family.
I would love to try this product. I have kids who have many skin allergies so it’s hard to find something they’re able to use! This is something that I would love to try!
I would love to review this cuz I always use Banana Boat sunscreen. I have since my 14 y/o was little, and would love to try this stuff on my 3 year old!!
We go through loads of sunblock a year… being a kiwi, exposed to so many people with skin cancer there, he is obsessive. This would be neat to try!
Would love to try and test it out with my kids 🙂
I would love to try this out! my son took after me and is very fair skin toned and burns so easily. Havent found anything in the last 2 years that helps yet!
I’ve never reviewed before & I’ve always wanted to review kid’s products! My whole family is very fair skinned too! 🙂
i have three kids (4yo twinadoes and a 7 year old) and would LOVE to give this a whirl for you!!!! and the fact that it is natural is a huge plus for me!
Our baby girl will be ready for sunscreen soon and mom and dad can’t wait to get out and explore outside with her !
would love to try this for my grand kids
I need to get some sunscreen for my daughter this summer and prefer a more natural product. I’d love to try this!
I’m always looking for new products for my 4 year old and 9 month olds. I love that this is made with natural ingredients!
Hi I would love to try this as I have fair skin and burn easily. Thank you
just moved to a house with a pool, and when the sun comes out and we get to swim, my g-babies will need to be protected 🙂 love to try it
I would love to try this for my son, he has sensitive skin. This sounds like a great product because it is natural.
I would love to use this product and write you up a review, thank you for the chance 🙂
I have two children who LOVE the beach … i am always trying new products that are more natural and healthier for my family 🙂
I would love to be a sampler! With four little ones and a fifth on the way getting outside is crucial for everyones’ sanity!
I’m a mom of an extremely pale little girl with red hair and irish/scottish roots.. we don’t tan in our family unfortunately, we burn! I’m dying to try this product to see if it may make trips outside a bit less stressful for us. I hope so! 🙂 I love that it has natural ingredients so I won’t feel guilty slathering it all over my 2 year old. 🙂
Love Banana Boat products..I am a new and first time grandmother to a beautiful baby girl and want to give her something that I can trust! Thank you! 🙂
Would love to try this!
Any chance to try a new product and get outside is a great time!
Because I love Banana Boat sunscreens, and I like that this one boasts natural ingredients.
I am excited to see companies listening to consumers, I would love to try this out especially on my redhead child who’s so quick to burn
I would love to review on my blog Bostonmomof4 I only have done a couple of reviews. I have 4 very light skinned kids. I would love to try and review as I’m always looking for the newest things for my kids that offer what the labels promise. I love this brand but have never tried this exact one.
I would love to review because my little girl has sensitive skin and i have been looking for something new to try 🙂
I would love to try this with my two kids, because I love that it is natural and it’s Banana boat

I’d like to try it for my grand baby ! (:
Would love to try on my two little kids!
I have two little boys that inherited my pale skin and burn easily. I would love to try this on them.
I would love to try this because i never try a naturel sunscreen before…
I would love to try this! I have my 3 grandchildren all summer long and we spend a lot of time outside. The 9 & 6 yr old both play baseball & this would be great on those very sunny days standing in the outfield.
I’m always looking for the best way to protect my child’s pale skin!
I’d like to sample it to see if it will actually blend in with my kids’ complexions. Products I’ve used in the past don’t seem suited for all varieties of skin colours, leaving a pasty residue which is awkward when you’re out and about.
I would love to try this out with my daughters, ages 7 & 9 and my sin age 2! Looking forward to playing in the sun with them!
Would love to try it on my daughter!
I’d love to try this product on the children I take care of 🙂
I would love to try this out on my kids especially my little red head 🙂
Would love to try something different then our usual
I still haven’t found a sunscreen I’ve loved for my kids, maybe this will be it?
I love the idea of finally having a natural option!
With 4 kids and a grandbaby I would love to try this out. I’d be very eager to share my review with both our blogs: CanadianBasics & CouponNannie !
I would love to try and review this sunscreen. I like that it is PABA and Paraben free. Two criteria I look for in a sunscreen for my toddler.
I have tried many but still looking for a favourite. Given that it’s Banana Boat I would imagine the price point is reasonable too.
Would love to try this product! My children both have such sensitive skin (eczema and food sensitivities) so this would be perfect for them! Always looking for more natural products!
I would love to try this out. My kids have sensitive skin and usually break out with different lotions so I would be keen to see how they reacted to this. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love the opportunity to review this. We just got back from a hot holiday in the sun and know how important it is to have good sunscreen.
I have a child with 54 known allergies and so am always looking for new products.
This is great! I would love to try out this new sunscreen! I am still looking for the perfect sunscreen to use on my children and would love to give Banana Boat Natural Reflect a try. Banana Boat is a very reputable name and I love that they have created this option in suncreen.
This year my little girl will be playing outside a lot – so we need to find a good sunscreen for her.
I would love to try this product. We have a pool and my daughter always get burned in the summer.
I would love to try this! I love trying new products and reviewing them. We spend a lot of time outside & at the beach so we need a great sunscreen. My son’s skin is a little sensitive and he’s a water baby so we need something water resistant. Can’t wait to try it! We love Banana Boat products!
have three kids vacation often we go through a ton of sunscreen keeping them sun safe. ..pick me pick me…
I’d love to test this because my youngest son has sensitive skin and this sounds like it would be great for him. I love that it is Paraben, PABA and Oxybenzone-free! I’m hoping they get this in my local stores soon, I was just over to Walmart looking at sunscreen and didn’t see this one.
Sunscreen is so important. I love that this is all natural,
Would love to try this out since my little guy is sensitive to a lot of products!
I would love to try it for my kids thank u
I would love to try this.. Having 2 little ones I would like to try a natural option!
I would love to try this.. Having 2 little ones I would like to try a natural option!
I would like to review because my kids love outdoor and since the weather is getting better, we spend more outdoor times. Also, we travel a lot too so a natural sunscreen is definitely something that we would love to try out.
Sunscreen can be expensive! its something I am very diligent about purchasing and using so I would love the opportunity!
Wow what an oppertunity!! Thanks so much for offering this! I would love to try it on my 4 children! Thanks so much!
I’ve got kids! Saskatchewan has a ton of sun! I’m in!
We go through many tubes of suntan lotion every summer. I am always looking for a lotion that is effective.
I would love to try this on my 3 daughters (we have never found one sunscreen that we all love)!
Id like to try, I am pale skin and so is my youngest, we have always coated ourselves with sunscreen, but still I have a spot on my face that has been damaged by the sun and now have to keep an eye on it for any changes. I dont want that happening to my daughter.
I have a ginger. Do I need to say more LOL? We are the fairest family at the beach and I feel like sunscreen is a tough product to find the ‘right one’. They can be too thick to spread or too greasy. I have found an adult one that I like but nothing great for the kids.
We do have odd skin sensitivities here. Not something I think about in the winter, but when it comes to sunscreen in the spring and summer – can’t be without. Trying new products can be hit and miss and I would be interested to try and review this because it is natural.
Would love to try this on my one year old for her first official summer.
I would love to try it….spend a lot of time at the beach!!
i would love to review this product because my son is incredibly fair skinned with white blonde hair and in the summer time he burns incredibly easy and often and i am constantly trying to keep him safe from the sun with good sunscreens
we have a pool in our backyard so we go through sunscreen like crazy in the summer. With my 2 kids and my 8 nieces and nephews- we have have lots of skin to protect ! This would be awesome
I would love to review this product. We spend a lot of time outdoors in the summer camping and at the beach. I’m always on the lookout for new healthier sunscreen options (they are hard to find and often expensive). I will definitely submit a review if selected.
I love trying new products and giving reviews! Plus my step daughter is quite sun sensitive. Thanks for the chance!
I have two busy boys and we love to be outside as much as possible in the summer. Protection from the sun is super important to us.
I would love to review it, because we spend lots of time outside and at the cottage.
I would like to review because my kids spend tons of time outside in the sun. They wear sunscreen but my youngest has sensitive skin and sometimes gets irritated by it.
Would love to try this out on my active boys! Thanks for the opportunity!
I would love for my daughter to try this product! We use a lot of sunscreen here in the “Sunny” Okanagan!
My girl is so fair I would love to try something new
Would like this for my 4 grand kids . Thank you.
I love trying different products. I like sun screams that are not greasy
I’d love to try this product!
My twin girls like playing outdoor and swimming, and they have sensitve skin. This will be a great product to try out!
Id like to review this sunscreen to see how it holds up in Mexico!
Being a mom of 5 I would love to try this.
Always looking for a better way to keep my sensitive skin children safe from the sun!
Would love to try this!!!
I am very pale and burn really easily. I just want to be protected!
Because I’d love to try it on my 3 kids
I would love to review this sunscreen, to see how well it works for very fair skin and red hair. I like to make sure that we as a family are well protected from the sun. Finding the right product is important to us in keeping our skin healthy.
I have one bad burner in my family. We do all we can to stop her from burning. We are going to Georgia soon and I got Burnt BAD last year and am not a burner, so I would love to try it!
I love sharing my opinions! Also, spring is here (finally) and it’s time to break out the sunscreen!
I love to share my opinion on new products and I would alos love to try a new Natural sunscreen that is readily available and doesn’t break my bank account 🙂
i would love to win this for my nephew. he is a red head and burns really easy
This would be for me – light skin/mornings spent at the beach and afternoons in the garden.
I love trying new sunscreens–I’ve yet to find the perfect one. I’d love to try this one to see if it’s right for me! If not, I can send it with my partner when he goes on his 6 week dig in Crete, he’s going to need all the sunscreen he can get!
while we all burn from too much sun our family is split. 2 that take to the sun more naturally and 2 that are fair and burn easily. either way having a natural product that is also tear free would be great as we all love to play outdoors and i know that sunshine is coming any day now
Always on the look out for a good natural sunscreen! I appreciate the chance to try it!
We love Banana Boat Products and would love to try a Natural one!
I would love to try this, being hopeful that we will eventually get some warm weather 🙂 with two little ones and going for walks often It would be a great opportunity for us to try and review it!
I love trying out different sunscreens and with summer (hopefully) coming I go through a lot of sunscreen as I am outside working on acreage every day
I have 3 little very fair boys and would love to try this. I do normally use banana boat so its a brand I trust
My little boy has red hair and extremely fair skin (just like mum!). It’s really important that we have a good, reliable sunscreen for him. I’d love to give this one a shot and see how it stands up!
I have one Child who burns easily– would love to give this a try 🙂
I would love to try this on my two sons!
I would love for my granddaughter to try this, as she has psoriasis & we are always looking for sunscreen that won’t bother her! This would be a great opportunity for her!
I would love to try this on my two boys – if the sun ever shines! It would be great to contribute to the review to give constructive feedback 🙂
My family is a fan of Banana Boat products and I like how its SPF of 50, great!
My family has very sensitive skin and it’s hard to find a good natural sunscreen that doesn’t bug their skin and works well too!
I’d like to review this because we have a full summer ahead, and I will be covering my daughter with sunscreen almost everyday!
I would love to try this on my son.
Would love to review.
I’m looking for a new sunscreen for my kids, so I would love to try this!
I would love to review for this sunscreen, Tenille. Clearly, the one that I am using isn’t working! 🙂
i have 4 kids and buy a lot of sunscreen! would love to try the banana boat!
Hopefully SPRING will arrive any day now! This would be great to try!
Because it’s important to me that my daughters’ skin is protected. I haven’t used Banana Boat since I was a teenager and I’d love to check out this new formula.
I’d love to review and try. We need to have sunscreen for daycare (x2 per day) and we travel a bit so would get good use out of it. Plus I love Banana Boat porducts!
I’d love to try this out. I’m always looking for a great sunscreen for my son that works for us and this is one brand I have not tried yet.
Sunscreen is important at any time that you are out in the elements. When we go hiking I am amazed at how many people forget this necessity. I would share the product and note the results.
I would love to review. I am a huge sunscreen fan and this would be GREAT!
I have 5 children and would love to try this product and give my opinion. Thanks so much for the chance
Would love to be included in review panel. I love trying new things and lettiing others know what i think..
Little guys 2 yrs old. Fair skin and blond. Would love to have an opportunity to try this sunscreen.
i love the banana boat products i already use and i would like to give this a shot
I have two little girls who love to play outside and I am always looking for a sunscreen that works great and is easy to use on them so I would love to try out this new one. Perfect timing before the first long weekend of summer hits too as we are on a roadtrip to start the season off!
I would love this so much as i have 3 kids very easy burned skin and i bien easy as well
Let me first just say that we have a rather large yard and swimming pool area and are grandparents to four young grandkids who are at our home several times a week to enjoy the pool. I’d like to review this sunscreen because we are all very fair skinned, thus go through sunscreen by the bucket full! I’m always on the lookout for a high spf sunscreen that is easy to apply & not greasy feeling.
We could really give it a test run!
I love trying new products and sharing my opinion
I have never tried Banana Boat -I’m more a Coppertone or Hawaiian Tropic kind of girl – so I would love the opportunity to try out a new brand!
Would like to try banana product and give you my feedback
My kids skin burn easily so this product would be great to try out!
any reviews back on this product yet? curious need to buy some sunscrean for my son! klol
