Summer Activity Tips
☀️ Beat the Heat
Do outdoor activities in early morning or late afternoon. Stay hydrated and take shade breaks.
🧴 Sun Protection
Sunscreen, hats, and sun-protective clothing are non-negotiable. Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours.
🎨 Embrace the Mess
Summer is the perfect time for messy play—it all rinses off outside! Old clothes and hose-down cleanup.
📱 Lower Expectations
Toddler attention spans are short. 10 minutes of focused play is a win. Move to the next activity freely.
