This summer one of my goals is take our baby girl around – ballparks, museums, and of course the pool. This heat isn’t making it easy though. We’ve went to a game last Thursday night and it was still a bit muggy 7 in the evening. the good news is that the game was exciting and there was plenty of drinks and icees around to enjoy and cool off.
I’d like to ask other parents, how are you keeping your kids busy while staying cool?
