light weight long pants with a cardigan on the plane as it can get cool on the plane. I get these washed and wear them home.
Kids can get cold when it's hot and won't wear a jumper when it's cold (you know what it's like) but I would just bring (on the plane) something long sleeve but not bulky. If you are worried put in an old tracksuit and give it away at the end of the trip. That way you don't need to worry and someone benefits by having some clothes for their kids. Someone at your hotel or on the beach weill appreciate them on your last day.
You can buy long sleeve surf T-shirts there but you probably won't need anything warm unless you go up the mountains. It can be a little cool there.
Have a great trip. I remember my kids first trip when they were 6 + 8. It's amazing seeing things through the eyes of children. They get pleasure from the little things. My sons "best thing" was a man with a bike loaded up with kids toys. He wanted to buy everything. LOL
