Keeping kids safe in the summer sun starts early. Teach children to apply an SPF 15 sunscreen before they begin their day outdoors and reapply every two hours and after swimming, even if the sunscreen says it's water-resistant. Babies under six months old cannot be exposed to the chemicals in sunscreen and must stay covered up when in the sun. Source Link
You need to make a few adjustments to keep up with a walking routine in summer heat. If you’re out for more than 30 minutes be sure to carry a water bottle to stay hydrated and consider splitting a long walk into several shorter ones. Lunchtime isn’t the best time for walking in hot weather and early morning and late evening hours are better choices for a walk. Source Link
A few good housekeeping habits now can help you avoid a bigger chore later. Do laundry when you have one load of it and wash items while you’re cooking to avoid dried food that’s harder to clean. Sort your mail as it comes in, stop keeping magazines you don’t read and put away yesterday’s clothes before you pick out today’s outfit. Source Link
