visit your feeder.
Remember Your Sunscreen
Sunscreen is one of the most important items to remember
for summer. Sunscreen should be the maximum protection
especially for children and should be reapplied throughout
exposure to the sun. Not only does sunscreen help
prevent skin cancer but it can also help keep your
summer fun by avoiding painful sunburn.
Picnic Planning
Plan regular picnics in the public parks or other open
public areas of your city/town. Even if you just
take sandwiches the time spent with your family will
be the best summer fun you can have.
