I find myself looking for last year’s pool toys and shaking out beach towels. While we don’t own a summer home, our friends do and are kind enough to open their doors to us on the weekends.

Our evenings are often spent sitting on their decks with our children staring at the beautiful sunsets. I immediately thought of those picturesque nights when I saw Pottery Barn Kids’ Adirondack Chairs ($69). I can’t think of a more appropriate gift for the beach lover's child. These scaled down versions of the adult summer staple come in a variety of colors and can be personalized with the owner's name.
