These neck fans were one of my FAVORITE Amazon purchases last summer!
People looked at me funny when I pulled it out of my bag at the pool, but when I put it on them, they were sold! Haha! Three speeds, adjustable, lights up and charges via USB. Teachers that are outside for bus duty, recess, practices, etc. need one of these….and of course, for their own pool time this summer!
Available in several colors HERE.
You could also use this tag for other styles of portable fans. Sharing a few below:
