Staying Safe in the Heat!

Whew it has been SO HOT! We have been doing our best to keep cool here. Unfortunately in doing so, it has kept us from the outdoors several times this summer! But, we have created an enrichment room that has been a huge help to us during these disturbingly hot temperatures. This room is full of toys (hula hoops, balls, indoor games, etc.) which allows the children to get some of their energy out when it is too hot or cold to go outside! 




 A few of our 2 year olds enjoying the enrichment room! :)



The hula hoops have been a BIG hit this summer! We put on contests to see who can move their hips the longest! They have SO much fun getting exercise and learning new skills with their friends.







Aiden taking a little break from the fun! Who knew having so much fun could be so tiring?!







We want to make sure our families here are aware of any and all safety precautions to take during this extremely hot summer! Check out the following website to learn more about sun safety and how important it is to keep our kids safe while having fun outdoors.

"Most kids get much of their lifetime sun exposure before age 18, so it's important for parents to teach them how to enjoy fun in the sun safely. Taking the right precautions can greatly reduce your child's chance of developing skin cancer".

Here are some helpful Sun myths and facts! Make sure to lather your babies up and stay safe!!
