kid swimsuits

Whether you're planning a Spring getaway or getting prepped for a fun Summer in the sun, your little ones probably need a swimsuit update, and Stella Cove is the place to get it. Stella Cove's swimwear collection for children (you'll find suits in sizes for kids from 12 months to 14 years old) is full of bright, whimsical graphics — ballet flats, rubber duckies, skulls, headphones, and grapefruits are just some of our favorites — that will ensure your little one is the beach's best dressed kid. Bikinis, swimsuits for boys and girls, rash guards, and cool cover-ups make up the chic selection, which is as stylish as it is eco-friendly. All the suits are oekotex certified; meaning Stella Cove uses no harmful chemicals in the fabric. Check out some of our favorites from the line now — and moms, take note: Stella Cove also offers some super stylish grown-up designs that might inspire you to add to your own swimwear wardrobe, as well!

If you've ever taken your diaper-wearing daughter to the beach or pool, you've probably experienced the frustration of changing her while she's wearing a wet, impossible-to-pull-off swimsuit. When new mom Kimberly Goodwin took her daughter, Reese, to the beach in Nantucket for the first time a couple of years ago, she found inspiration from that frustration and created genius swimwear line, Snapping Turtle Kids. Goodwin, a New Yorker who formerly worked at Lucky and Vogue, has created a line that's equal parts fashion and function. The prints — inspired by different vacation spots like Palm Beach and Malibu — are totally adorable, and the designs feature stainless steel snaps for swimsuits and 100 percent cotton terry cloth for cover-ups and hats.
