Keeping Summer Essentials Handy
Keeping kids entertained in the summer is just so much easier than it is in the winter. My kids can be entertained for hours with paint brushes and water, washing their toys, and spending quiet time drawing in a nature journal or coloring books. When it gets a little warmer, sprinklers offer fabulous entertainment for hours for my kids.

Craft ideas and supplies! Sometimes it’s raining or just too hot to play outside. I want to be able to pull something out quickly for my girls to do, instead of wasting time looking for an idea for a project, only to find we’re missing key elements.

Here in South Texas it gets hot and stays hot, bu our list is much shorter:
squirt guns (fill w/ice water on really hot days!)
bubbles
water balloons
freezer pops
a hose to create “rain” and cool off quickly
a small kiddie pool to keep the little ones cool and for swishing mom’s hot, tired feet
And I plan to fill a spray bottle and keep it in the fridge; I’ll pull it out and mist my hair, face and neck frequently on hot days.

sunscreen!
then popsicles, bubbles, balls, jump ropes, pool, ride-on toys/bikes, slip-n-slide, etc…anything with water really.
When it gets too hot we find free places to go and play inside, crafts, playdough, workbooks, and we participate in a summer reading program.

Don’t forget the first-aid kit! When summer approaches I take mine out of the car, make sure everything is up-to-date and filled. I also put a plastic bag filled with band-aids of several sizes, antibiotic ointment, alcohol prep pads and tweezers in our beach/pool bag.

I love an ice crusher. We live in Texas so you know it gets very hot. I have grand children and day care children here with me 5 days a week. I keep ice ready to crush and we use it in lots of ways. Sometimes we even throw it at each other like snow.
Also keep picnic supplies ready in a REAL picnic basket. We load up the wagon and walk to the park for a real picnic in the park.

I don’t have kids so I am by no means an expert but about things to do that well don’t involve plastic. Or try getting toys from the thrift store or a neighborhood toy swap.
Try entertaining them without things. Kids can help garden or “hunt” various bugs and insects and if they need some motivation you can set it up kind of like a treasure hunt or a contest.
Just some thoughts.
