Florida Life: Beating the heat

Bad Mom Alert: I have not forced my kids to play outside ONCE this summer! 


It's so hott. and we live in the country, without a pool ...away from the coast so it's even HOTTER!

Ways to beat the heat:  I'm not sure, we're indoors!

Normally we do everything we have to do in the morning before it gets really hott outside. Florida heat in the summer is no joke, so make sure you bring, and drink LOTS OF WATER when doing anything outdoors.

We went to Disney world in 2010, in AUGUST. I have never been more thirsty in my life. Hydrating down here is so important, and it's important for your skin too!  You ARE going to sweat in this state. Oh, you don't sweat? Well you will here! Needless to say, we haven't done Disney in the summer since. We ended up spending $80 on bottled water and an overpriced "misting fan water bottle".

Find a friend with a pool.
Go to the beach.
Find a friend that lives on the beach.
Go to indoor shopping centers.
Water Balloon Fights!
Get the neighborhood families to chip in on a waterslide and have a water day.
Always have popscilces on hand.
Ice cream shops.

We haven't done half of these things and we still have August to go through. But that doesn't mean we don't want too! LOL.

Stay cool friends
