It's summertime, it's hot and it's time to get
organized for those long summer days.
1. Beach/swim/pool bag. Designate one bag
and pack it with sunscreen, towels,
pool pass, and some beach/pool toys.
Don't forget to pack some baby powder in
this bag, too. Baby powder is magic
2. Flip Flop basket. Put family flip flops in
a basket for quick and easy access.
3. Summertime skin care basket. Load up
a container with sunscreen, aloe, lip balm
and bug spray. This can be a grab and go
basket or it can be a container that stays
in the house so everyone knows
where to go to retrieve what they need.
4. Grill utensils. Why not have all those
grill items close to the grill and not taking
space in the kitchen. Find a bucket to
accommodate all those utensils and set
it near the grill.
5. Snack stations. The kids are home
and hungry! Set up some healthy snacks in the
fridge, in the pantry or designated drawer
with snacks for them to grab and go.
Also, make sure you have reusable plastic
cups for them to easily use to stay hydrated!
