10 tricks to beat the heat of summer
- Drink fluids…water and/or sports drinks to replenish salt & minerals
- Sunscreen…be especially cautious of sunburn on young children
- A wide brimmed patriotic hat is your friend to keep the sun off your brow
- Wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing
- Stay indoors, go to shopping mall or movie theater
- Wear a bandana around your neck and keep it wet. Evaporation will help keep you cool.
- Seek shade or use umbrellas and pop up tents
- Use Squirt bottles of water as misters (my kids favorite!)
- Check in frequently with your elderly family members and friends to ensure they’re hydrating
- Take a cool shower/bath or just turn the hose on the kids
