great enter me
We love to entertain in the summer and have lots of barbeques. Very often the kids feel left out as the parents (us) sit and tend to the grill, make drinks and just get caught up in grown up conversations. Two very inexpensive ways to keep the kids entertained are buying lots of chalk because the little girls love to play hop scotch using the sidewalk in our backyard that leads down to the lake and the little boys love playing horseshoes. These are 2 quick, easy, no set up involved ways to keep your kids having fun, staying active, and in sight of where you can see them and still have some adult fun too! Thank you so much for the chance to enter.

Before booking a hotel room for a summer trip, research online. Booking either several months in advance or right before you leave (when hotels may have many empty rooms to fill), can lead to great deals.

My favorite summer tip is to spend time outside the family, with bug spray and sunscreen of course
I get all of the fresh summer fruit I can at great season prices and freeze everything! Then in our long MN winter, we can have frozen fruit and I know exactly where it came from. And I also support our local growers!

My favorite summer tip is to keep it cool inside and out. As in, make homemade frozen smoothies, take cold (as you can stand) showers, make ice cream floats (root beer, orange soda, cola, or any flavor you can think of with vanilla ice cream), chill some homemade popsicles, anything that lets you cool down quick and simple. And never overlook the value of a good box fan!

Drink *lots* of water. Swim often. Keep cool. Thanks for the contest.
Drink plenty of water. This is much better for you than sweet drinks.
When going on camping trips or family outings in the summer, I like to put an ice pack wrapped in foil in my toiletry case to keep items from melting.
Best summer tip I’ve heard wasn’t a summertime tip: Spend more time with your loved ones.
We grow a lot of our own fruits and veggies and have fun canning them as well as making jams. Swimming in the pool is another wonderful family time event.
Put sunscreen on your kids!! I grew up in Florida and back in the 70’s it wasn’t well known the damage the sun could do to a childs skin. Now I am 38 years old, have had a melanoma surgically removed, over 20 pre cancers burned of my arms and legs, and had my face undergo a carac treatment where you put the lotion on for 10 days and it reveals and eliminates the precancers without scarring-my entire face was speckled as if I had chicken pox. I now have 7 and 5 year old fair skinned daughters and we use nothing less than a 50 spf and preferable a 70.
Always carry around water, extra sunblock and a hat as the weather could change and these help avoid a sunburn or heatstroke.
Don’t leave home without Sunscreen for the entire family.

Wear Sunblock EVEN on cloudy days (they are the worst because you don’t realize how much rays you are getting)…. Drink lots of water also
Lots of fun just lounging with your family in the pool, do it often, stay safe, and have fun!
Stay hydrated by driging lots of water.
Enjoy the weather outside but make sure you use a good sunblock and you stay hydrated with plenty of water.
We always make sure to wear sunscreen and re-apply! Also hats are a necessity.
My best tip is utilize bbq. Cooking outside is not only fun but it lowers your cooling costs by not using your oven during the summer.
Drink lots of fluids and limit time in the sun!
My summer tip is, on long car trips, make sure to bring CD’s for the CD player in case of traffic jams.
People, you will be bored. The music will help with that. Might I recommend “Halfbreed” by the Keef Hartley Band?

Always carry sunscreen that way if you go out and you’re longer than you expect or if you decide to stop somewhere you will be prepared!

my favorite summer tip is in addition to wearing sunscreen wear a sun hat while outside. they help so much in keeping away sunburns. thanks!
I bring fabric softener sheets in my purse/diaper bags. I rub them on my kids’ clothes. They keep the mosquitoes away. I’m always a little leery to use the insect repellent spray on the kids because of the chemicals.
