My favorite summer tip is to ALWAYS apply that sun Block BEFORE you head out the door! Do NOT under estimate the harmful Effects of the sun’s rays! They are very damaging and over the course of a lifetime they are cancer causing.
After a few hours outdoors Re-Apply the Sun Block., Apply after sweating and swimming of course!
Thanks so much for the chance to win!

Me and my 5 girlfriends take turns hosting a backyard BBQ. We each hold one group BBQ during the summer and we split the food preparation. We rotate so nobody has to do the same thing every time. One person holds the party and provides cups, plates, napkins, spices and condiments; one peson brings the meat, one person brings a couple salads or side dishes; one person brings chips, dips, fruits and veggies; and one person brings desserts. We can trade off with each other if – if the person who has side dishes wants to do desserts she can switch with the dessert person if they’re interested.
We have so much fun and our families stay close this way.

My favorite tip is to freez juice in ice cube trays and use that in my son’s sports bottles to keep his drinks from getting watered down.
During the day, close your windows and cover them with dark shades for an energy-saving way to keep cool. At night, open windows to let the air circulate.

It’s important during the summer to make sure everyone keeps hydrated. Have several different non-carbonated drinks on hand, including plenty of water, for everyone to drink.

A good tip for tick removal during the summer is to apply a generous amount of liquid soap to a cotton ball. Cover the tick with the soap-soaked cotton ball and hold it there for 15-20 seconds. The tick will come out on its own and will be sticking to the cotton ball when you remove it. It works every time, and no trauma!

My favorite summer tip would be to bring bottles of ice water with me wherever I go. The bottled water you buy when you’re out is never cold enough on a really hot day so it ends up being lukewarm while you’re drinking it, whereas you can pack a bottle of your own with filtered water & ice from home and be comfy.

My summer tip is make sure you remember to use OFF at night and sun block during the day !
Use a toaster oven instead of your regular oven to minimize heating up the kitchen.
there are lots of things to do like library programs… free movies or dollar movies..concerts in the park
you can do fun things like making painted tshirts or pillowcases on older stuff or tye dye…make it fun
use an indoor grill instead of oven
wear lots of sunscreen!!

My favorite summer tip is always have mosquito protection on and spray again as often as needed. Also make sure your dogs are protected by heartworm medication. One mosquito bite can be deadly or at the very least painful because of treatment needed to combat heartworm disease to a dog.

use that sunscreen and keep hydrated
Throw an ice cream party! It’s inexpensive and you get to see the best of people. Who can be angry while eating ice cream!

To save money on get fresh fruit and produce go to your local farmers markets.
Instead of soda pop, our family drinks plenty of water. We have pictures of cold water in the fridge!
always buy the good stuff, and in quantity
Use sunscreen and reapply as needed to keep from getting nasty sunburns when having fun outdoors.
wv_sbtl(at)yahoo(dot)com
Make sure to drink PLENTY of water
i keep the after sun care gel in my firdge so if we get a little more sun than we would like the temperature cools as it soothes
Drink plenty of water. Make sure you always use a good sunscreen. Walk more and enjoy the weather instead of driving the car, when ever you can.

Keep a bottle of sun block in the car in case you forget to apply before leaving home!
always have an ice chest with water in the car, otherwise it is not safe in the car with the extreem heat, anyone curious. see how sheryl crow links it to her cancer. anyways we also always have water in the fridge along with aloe vera and plenty of gatorade and pedialite.

My summer tip is to enjoy it, especially for those of us who live in areas where we only have the warm weather for a short while.
Drive with the windows down when you can – it’s a nice alternative to the air conditioning and you save gas!
Make sure you have a high SPF sunscreen and reapply it every few hours!
Keeping hydrated is so important – everywhere we go we take along a Sig bottle for all of us with nice cold water!
I keep a tote bag handy with sunscreen and bug spray (we have a lot of deer ticks in our area). Whenever we go outside or go to the park or hiking, the tote bag is ready to go with us. This way we never forget to put on sunscreen and protect ourselves from bug bites.
When packing a picnic, put some damp paper towels in a ziploc baggie. Throw the bag in your ice chest. When it’s time to clean up, these are an effective way to clean up messy hands. They also feel lovely on a hot day!
the park is an easy and free way to have fun.
My most important summer tip is use lots of sunscreen!!

My tip is to always wear sunscreen and drink plenty of water.
I take a water bottle with me everywhere I go. you have to stay hydrated and buying a bottle if you forget can get expensive
A splash of 100% fruit juice in a glass of water adds some flavor without a lot of calories or artificial sweeteners.
sweet
Always make sure you have fluids with you as it is very easy to get dehydrated. We carry water with us and a cooler in the car so we save money and always have drinks available.
Make sure you protect yourself with sunscreen. You really don’t want to end up with skin cancer in the future.
Make sure you keep a supply of popsicles in your freezer. Your kid’s friends will love you for it!
popsicles and paper towels, now that’s summer
popsicles bring back a lot of fine memories growing up HOT NY SUMMERS Popsicles and MOM`s homemade lemonade to cool you off sititng outside under the big old shade tree thats Summer
I make sure the kids wash their legs and arms with strong soap if they have been anywhere there might be poison ivy, like in the woods behind our house.

Tired of your favorite summer drink getting watered down from melted ice cubes? Or getting warm too quickly? Tip: Make your favorite flavored Kool-Aid, fill an ice cube tray with it, freeze, put ice cubes into your favorite flaved drink, and Enjoy!! Thank you for the contest!
Homemade popsicles are fun for the kids and cheaper than buying them at the store! Thanks for the contest!
Always wear SPF of 15 or better- and just not in the summer, all year.
Every September I stock up on summer goodies that are on clearance. Then in June, when school lets out, the kids have new things to play with.
My favorite summer tip is to wear sunscreen! Even if it is not that sunny outside, you do still need it.
Always make sure you have some type of bug spray or bug repellent candles because even if it doesn’t seem bad, mosquitoes are tricky!

My best tip – keep a basket with sunscreen and bug spray near the door so you and the kids always remember to put it on before going outside
I make vinegar based pastas rather than mayonnaise based side dishes because they stand the heat better.
Carry sunscreen.Its really dosent stay on you that long so you need to reapply!
Scott towels are very soft for my family to use especially my little girl and love the wipes they have a good smell and feel good.
Stay in the shade and drink lots of water.
Big Floppy fun hats! Totally cute, fun, and blacks the sun!
We keep a lot of bug spray and spray on sun block on hand – so no one is itchy or burned while enjoying the weather!
Grab the hat, sunscreen, water, and go outside and enjoy life!
Drink lots of water! Thanks for the chance.
Keep water easily available when anyone’s outside. I like to fill up reusable bottles in the evening and put them in the freezer overnight. Then I tuck them on the back porch and under a tree near the patio so everyone can rehydrate without thinking it’s too much trouble to come back into the house. I also keep a roll of paper towels in a plastic covered cake dish near the hose so kids and gardeners (meaning me) can wash and dry hands with ease.
My tip is to buy lots of travel size sunscreens and stash them everywhere – in my purse, in the car, in the diaper bag – and then I’m never caught without sunscreen.
My favorite summer tip is to relax and let everything else go. For at least a week, let the dishes pile up, do no laundry, and eat Twinkies for breakfast and Taco Bell for dinner. The kids love it, the hubby loves it ( because you are relaxed and happy and have more energy for hanky-panky), and you will thrive as you sip your Mai-Tai and read your new issue of Instyle.

Cook to order on the grill (at the same time as others) to save yourself from having too many leftover dried up burgers, etc. I find that I am unlikely to eat from the grill when everything is just loaded on it and cooked to death. I always cook everything the way our guests like it, and everything goes; and our guests don’t go away hungry.
sunscreen is a life saver
ALWAYS KEEPS PLENTY OF WATER AND ICE CREAM ON HAND IN THE SUMMER….WATER …WE NEED ICE CREAM WE WANT
dont forget to pack all the cold stuff in lots of ice and the hot stuff on the stove, to keep things from spoiling. thanks
Lots of water!!! Thanks for the chance.

I make my own popsicles using sugar-free Koolaid and pre-formed tubes!
Make sure you apply sunscreen 30-45 minutes before going in the sun. If you do it just before it doesn’t work as well
Have fun in the sun but use plenty of sunscreen!
Drink lots of water. Sodas and teas can dehydrate you, especially in hot weather
The most important summer tip I have is to use sunscreen, lots of it, and reapply it regularly.
Keep a water bottle handy, it helps so much.
use sunscreen daily!
Enjoy the weather while you can — don’t hide inside in the A/C! Venture out, wear a hat and sunscreen, and drink lots of water — no soda!
Always wear sunscreen, and then get outside and play!

My favorite summer tip is to slice up some watermelon and head to the beach because it is free, and don’t forget the sunscreen!
Here in Florida where it is really hot right now, I love to make smoothies with all kinds of fresh fruits. One of my favorite healthy smoothies that I also use as a meal replacement is to put ice, a scoop of powdered strawberry slimfast, a scoop of muscle milk light in vanilla flavor (this is a protein powder and very tasty on it’s own too), a banana that I have frozen the night before, (this is important because a frozen banana makes the smoothie thicker) skim milk and then blend. I could drink one everyday, they are really good.
Thanks for the giveaway and have a nice evening!

One that I’m re-learning is to put sunscreen on, wear a watch or have someone timing us when we’re swimming and don’t stay out in the sun for more than 30-45 minutes at a time. Then rest in the shade, re-apply sunscreen, and repeat. Having someone check for growing pinkness would also be good. I’ve been burned twice this summer already and it seems like this lesson is harder to learn than it should be.
We go to the farmer’s market all summer long to get the freshest produce!
smchester at gmail dot com
Find out if there is a local farm where you can go and buy fresh produce, or pick your own.
My favorite tip apply sunscreen indoors at least thirty minutes before sun exposure. Also stay well hydrated by drinking lots of water and take water with you everywhere.
Wear sunscreen and sunglasses.

My favorite summer tip is to keep a potted rosemary plant on your patio, not only is it great for cooking but it helps keep mosquitoes and other insects away.

My best summer tip is to have your freezer stocked with Otter Pops. My kids love them, and they really help to cool you down after being out in the sun for a long time. Oddly enough, they’ve also come in very handy this week with my coming down with strep throat!

I have a “summer essentials” bag I keep in my trunk: sunscreen, bug spray and a few old beach towels.

Have plenty of water available at all times.
Wipe your grill grate with vegetable oil to clean it and keep food from sticking.
clean the grill right when you turn it off – its easier to remove the debris when its hot.
thanks! (freaaa@gmail.com)
Keep some new things tucked back that can be done inside when it gets too hot to play outdoors.
Since I live where summer is 9 months long –we keep the guest bedroom stocked with everything guests might need. Especially insect repellant and sunscreen.
Ice packs: you’ll need them!
Make meals ahead of time and put them in the freezer so you can enjoy those summer evenings with the family outside.

NEVER leave the house without sunscreen! As a pale-skinned redhead, I’ve been following this step my entire life. Now that I’m 32, I look a lot younger b/c I don’t have the wrinkles or skin worries my other friends have.

Stay cool in the summer heat by keeping well hydrated with chilled water and homemade frozen popsicles!
Drink lots of water. And stay inside during the hottest part of the day.
After a day in the sun apply an aloe or cocoa butter based lotion on your skin. It’s very healing.

I keep a frozen wash cloth in my freezer. This helps with bee stings, cuts, scrapes and even sun burns.
lots of fresh air and rest
Turn on the lawn sprinkler! My kids are entertained for hours and the grown-ups end up having fun too.
Put a tall sprinkler next to the trampoline.
My tip is to enjoy the beach
Just have fun no matter what your doing summer is for fun in the sun.
Best tip
Bug spray(I hate skitters)
Carry a handheld fan that sprays water.
I leave Simple Green and paper towels out so I am ready for any messy needs.
I take some frozen gel packs to the grocery store with me and put them in the bags with my milk and other cold and frozen food. I find that my milk stays good beyond the expiration date if I keep it very cold on the 15 minute drive home.
My summer tip is be outside as much as you can. I have a nice awning over my patio so I can read outside while I wait for my husband to grill. The best part is being able to eat outside. We have tiki torches to keep away most insects, it’s a wonderful way to enjoy a meal.
Add garlic to everything. It makes everything taste better on the grill.
Think about summer the way you did as a child and just let loose! Hope I win 🙂 .
Paln special activities for the kids through the summer. Visit parks, look for historical markers,take hikes and go on picnics are just a few ideas.
Always have not only sunscreen handy but also mosqito repellant.
Vacation near home! Explore your nearby state parks for FREE!
Do like I did-hang out at the beach! Nothing better! Thank you!
Living in the deep south, I mostly stay indoors during the hot humid summer months and enjoy the outdoors the rest of the year.
I try to think of different places to take walks – through the downtown, woods and beaches.

When I”m working in the garden I always wear a wide brimmed hat & have a big bottle of water.
It’s so easy to get overheated so these are great precautions/hints.
My favorite summer tip is to go for a walk with family or friends in the evening after dinner — it’s cooler then and a great way to catch up.
Cut up watermelon chunks and freeze them. Nuke them for about 30 seconds and enjoy natures perfect fat free, added sugar free treat.
Summertime …
I wake up a little earlier, it’s cooler to move about, to get going and do something… almost like waking up in the Spring!

My favorite summer tip is to wear lots of sunscreen!
My favorite summer tips is play in the sprinklers as much as possible with my kids! Lots of water, lots of sunscreen, and lots of watermelon make for a fun afternoon (and longer naps afterward!)
lots of cold tea
My favorite tip is to drink water alot especially when outdoors.
Put a little bit of water in your portable water bottle and keep it in the freezer overnight. It’ll keep your drinking water cold while you carry it around the next day.
I carry a spray bottle of water, a wet towel, and bottled water when outdoors or running my erands.
My favorite tip is to always wear sunscreen during the day and bug spray at night.
Enjoy a morning at the pool and a nice nap after lunch in your cool home! Follow-up with a grilled dinner and then some homemade ice cream 🙂
Summer tip: When going to any outdoor events on a warm or hot day, we always carry a couple of face cloths in the cooler. They stay icey cold and are perfect to drape over the back of your neck or forehead for instant relief.
Use plenty of sunscreen and always have aloe vera on hand! Nothing worse than a sunburn to ruin all the fun!
Make sure you have a a fun sprinkler head so that you can water your lawn and let the kids have fun at the same time.

Tip – Drink water a lot…Great for your skin and keeps you hydrated
I always wear my moisturizer with sunscreen in it, even if I don’t put on my makeup. I have a fair complexion and burn fast. Also, to avoid “agespots” on your hands, put moisturizer or sunscreen there, too.
Thanks for having the giveaway.
It is very hot and dry where I live and we take water with us everywhere. If you get thirsty you are already dehydrated so drink water before going out in the heat.
Be sure to stay hydrated. I keep water in the car for when we are out and about and the kids get thirsty.
being sure to use mosquitoe repellant, since they seem to be quite annoying this year
Go for a walk and enjoy nature–you’d be surprised how many people spend time indoors in the summer!

You can’t ever have too much sunscreen or drink too much water.
I keep a sprinkler ready so when its a very hot day we can run around under it for fun! My son loves it.
Try not to use your stove. It heats up the house way to much/. Use a crock-pot or grill out.
I love to give the kids paint brushes and pails of plain water to paint pictures on the sidewalk and patio.
Cook outside on the grill whenever you can. Tastes great and keeps the kitchen (and the rest of the house) cool.

Grow your own herb garden in a container. Plant a few of your favorite herbs and put them outside your back door. Water daily in the hot sun. As you need to make things for a party or dinner, you’ll have fresh herbs to make it extra special. It’s so easy and very rewarding.
Take a ziplock bag full of ice and damp washclothes to cool yourself off when traveling/picnic/ball games.
Kids are more likely to want to drink lots of water if you put it in bottles they love!

I do errands and shopping very early to avoid the heat and the crowds.
We sit outside a lot on summer evenings, and we turn on the sprinklers for the kids and dogs – lots of happy memories of when the kiddos were little – screaming when they got wet, being chased by wet, barking dogs!
If you can, freeze the foods before you put them in your cooler for a long day trip. This works for sandwiches, juices, and meats and hotdogs for the grill.
.-= Deci´s last blog ..1806 Scott County =-.

Favorite summer tip? Become friends with the rich neighbor and soak in their pool for no fewer than three hours a day.
A day set aside completely to listen to your favorite music (per say the beatles) laying in a hammock by a private beach on a sunny day when there’s that perfect amount of breeze where it makes you just cool enough to be perfectly comfortable laying in a bathing suite outside.
My favorite summer tip is to spend lots of time outdoors. It cuts down on the mess!
Read as much as possible
Take up offers around your town when it comes to free things. For example, the movies here show free films in the morning. I bring my little brother to see them for free.
Do your yardwork early so you can stay out of the sun once it gets too hot!
Go up north to your summer home when the hot weather arrives.
Find fun, free things to do. Go to the park or the library together. Thank you!

My fav tip (besides always carrying and using sunscreen) is to keep baby wipes and napkins/paper towels in the car. stuff tends to get sticky or spill and then harden in the heat!

My summer tip: Don’t stay inside for too long.
When the weather is great, we like to go out for walks, to the park, to the beach, camping, wherever we can be outside. Staying inside for too long makes you sluggish and lose motivation. We know from experience, so we’ve decided to not stay inside for too long. However, do make sure you protect yourself from extreme heat. Sunblock, lots of water, and don’t over do it outside.
my favorite tip is to pick a moisturizer with spf that way you don’t forget to put on sunscreen at least once!
My summer tip is to not stay out in the sun for to long , wear sunsceen and make sure to drink plenty of water!

My summer tip is to HAVE FUN! Enjoy the sun but do it responsibly… wear sunscreen!
Summer Tips: For a great bbq flavor, buy cedar logs and soak them in water, then cook salmon on the grill, its delicioso!
In the summer I cook all my meals for the week on Sunday so that we will keep the house cool during the week my husband works outside so when he comes home he needs to be cool
my summer tip is always bring food and drinks to the beach : )
My summer tip. Do your outside activity in the morning or late evening and go to the library, museum, mall … and do indoor activities. And water. I can’t stress it enough! Weather you’re inside or out you need lots of water.
My favorite summer tip is Frozen Grapes–the kids love them–and they cool you off so fast

In the summer I grill a lot just to keep the temperatures down in the kitchen.
Use sunscreen, and drink plenty of water.
i like to drink water all day every day, i feel sick without a bunch of water in me
Make sure to always drink lots of water and make sure your pets have plenty of water as well.
make sure to have sun block on hand specially if you are light skinned.

Give everyone in the family their own water bottle to bring on summer outings to the beach, park, etc. We use Sigg bottles and put them in the refrigerator the night before so they are nice and cold. Having cold water in a special bottle encourages my kids to stay hydrated on hot days.

Don’t overwhelm your self with specifics. It’s good to plan for trips, but too much planning can rob it of its fun. : )
I always took my children to the beach after dinner (around 7-8pm), it is still warm without the harsh sun on them.
Summer clothes are a lot less bulky then winter clothes. So when going on vacation, to make life easier for you, pack an entire outfit for each kid in a labeled one gallon ziploc bag. Then you can just hand the child the bag and getting dressed is a snap so you can spend more time at the beach 🙂
Always wear sunscreen is my favorite summer tip.

Turn your air conditioner down to a cooler degree at night and really let the house cool down while it doesn’t have to battle the sun. The house will stay cooler longer during the day after a night of cool down.
With all those outdoor parties, remember to eat some sensible food before going to that party to save on calories.
My favorite tip is to have fun! Summer doesn’t last long enough, so savor those fun moments while you can!
Take time for your family.
To get a little extra exercise, park clear across the parking lot, so you’ll have to walk further.

When going out to eat, bring a cooler with several ice packs so you can store the leftovers inside. That way, you can enjoy the rest of your evening without having to run home and put the food in the fridge.
The summer tips I usually follow are ones that help lower energy usage and costs: for example, raising your thermostat to 78 degrees in the summer, raising it even more when you’re away for more than 8 hours, and keeping the shades closed while your a/c is on, all can really help with efficient energy consumption.

Summer is short, make sure you enjoy each day with your family to the fullest.!
My tip is to stay hydrated! Lots of fruit and water
Keep your curtains and blinds closed against that hot summer sun to help lower your electric bill. If you want some sunlight, go outside 🙂
Wear a cap or visor to protect from your face from the sun. Also, apply sunscreen and reapply if necessary. Then go out there and have some fun.Thank you.
My #1 tip this summer is to make sure I use a sunshade for my car windshield when the car is parked. We’ve had triple-digit temperatures most days this month, and my husband measured the temperature inside his parked car at nearly 140 degrees yesterday, even WITH a sunshade on and the windows slightly open!
My summer tip is that the summer is the perfect time to go through your closet, and get rid of all the things you no longer wear or need. Early September is the perfect time for a garage sale, so plan one and sell the things you decide to get rid of!
My biggest summer tip is keep hydrated. We live in Phoenix so its important for everyone to stay hydrated and drink lots of water.
Sunscreen!
And keep lots of popsicles and Italian Ice on hand 🙂
My favorite summer tip is shop at local farm stands and go to u-pick farms whenever possible and get the freshest, cheapest produce! We pretty much live on fruits and veggies all summer 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway… Hang a wasp trap in your yard (well away from your BBQ / outdoor eating area) a few days before that big weekend get together you planned, so that you can thin the wasp population a few days before the party !
make sure to stay hydrated in the summer
Sunscreen sunscreen sunscreen. I’ve already had one scare with skin cancer so it’s super important to cover up and use sunscreen.
Once in a while (not all the time) I turn the hose on low, and just hand it to Chubby-huggy (usually while hubby is grilling because she won’t leave him alone) and the look of delight on her face-priceless! Of course, I make sure she can’t reach the grill, or she would have that fire put out right away.
Always wear sunscreen when going outdoors.
Use LOTS of sunscreen! You may want that tan to make you look good but if you end up with skin cancer, it won’t look so good anymore!
Thanks for the great giveaway!

After a nasty bout of poisin ivy, I am learning to be more cautious & aware and teaching the kids to be also.
Prepare your own meals… and summer time is the prime time! Given the economics and the way food establishment employee’s (often part-time teenage help) desecrate your food – note: bugs are the least of your concerns – it’s more than common sense to eat at home.
Take snacks, we are out a lot during the summer, and fast food can add up quick. Oh, and drink a lot of water!

Wear pants and long sleeved shirts when walking in the woods to help keep the ticks off your body.
i read somewhere that you take a dish of joy lemon dish detergent and put it away from the party and the mosquitoes are drawn to that and fall in…hey it works! have fun
drink lots and lots of water
I keep watermelon chunks in the freezer for a nice cool snack for the kids.It is a great alternative to sugary popsicles.Thanks!
To eat outside! It is so much easier to hose off the sitting area (and the kids) rather than wiping up, sweeping, mopping and bathing!
.-= Lori Z.´s last blog ..A Vacation from Vacation =-.
Frozen grapes (and other fruit) make great snacks on hot days and are much healthier than popsicles and candy.
Also, freeze iced tea or lemonade in ice cube trays to use in those drinks, will keep them cold without watering them down 🙂
I always carry sunscreen, water and snacks with me in the summer. The sunscreen protects our skin. The water hydrates us. The snacks nourish us. The sun and heat will wreak havoc if you’re not careful.
.-= hotpants™´s last blog ..The Talk of Tinseltown, Week 3 =-.
I love sangria, but it always loses flavor when the ice melts. Instead of adding juice to the wine, I freeze juice into ice cubes and pop a couple in before guests arrive. Then I serve them their drinks with a couple extra cubes and some fresh fruit! Keeps the drink from watering down and the colored cubes add interest!

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.

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.
Don’t leave home without Sunscreen for the entire family.

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.

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?
