Beat th e Heat!
Designed to take the "ouch" out of backyard water slides, the innovative H2OGO! slides are the world's first line of water slides to feature the patented Speed Ramp™, a tough, inflatable launch pad that creates a smooth, big splash belly-flop landing while propelling riders head first into a superfast ride down the 18-foot slide. The addition of a Splash Lagoon beneath the Speed Ramp creates a drenching good takeoff, and funnels water throughout the entire slide, reducing friction and increasing speeds as riders skim their way through a gushing cascade towards the final deluge in the drench pool. Easy to set up in just minutes, the H2OGO! water slides come in a single, double and triple model, adding a new level of interactive outdoor fun by allowing kids to compete against their friends for the title of neighborhood champion, while keeping cool all summer long. The H2OGO! water slides have a suggested retail price of $9.99 for the single slide, $14.99 for the double and $24.99 for the triple, and are available at Toys R' US, Amazon.com, Target.com and Walmart.com.
Geleeo’s critically acclaimed self-cooling stroller liner is an absolute must for this summer. Born from one mom’s struggle with keeping her toddler cool in the summer heat, Geleeo is the only selfcooling liner made for kids in strollers! Inside the liner, a proprietary hydrogel provides a constant, gentle and soothing cooling sensation so toddlers stay comfortable in their strollers. It requires no prior refrigeration, freezing or energy consumption and is the most revolutionary, convenient, and eco-friendly way to keep your children cool outdoors. And because the liner is designed by a mom who knows firsthand how fussy toddlers can be, it is low maintenance, easy to clean and completely waterproof and is a universal fit for all toddler strollers.
6 July 2015 | PB Parenting |
Geleeo can be purchased in pink, blue gray or beige. These reversible liners are guaranteed to make afternoon walks more enjoyable for everyone by dramatically enhancing your toddlers’ experience. Geleeo liners are sold online via amazon.com and a number of other online outlets for $49.95.

After a summer dip in the pool or a day at the beach little ones dry off and emerge with a rat’s nest of tangles on top of their little heads. No matter how gently mom or dad tries to comb through the knots, a few inevitably result in accidental hair pulling and a yelp. Instead of regularly contending messy hair madness, Kandoo has created a detangler that makes dips in the pool and soaks in the bath both a calming and relaxing experience for parents and kids alike.

10 Ways to Bust Indoor Summer Boredom BY KERRIE MCLOUGHLIN Playing in the sprinkler only takes up so many hours of a day, then the kids are ready to come inside for some popsicles and hang-out time. I’m all for kids experiencing boredom sometimes, but it never hurts to put a few fun suggestions in front of them. Read on for 10 ways to bust indoor boredom, some of which kids can do on their own and some of which you’ll want to get involved in. 1. Perler beads. You may know them as those things that go crunch when you vacuum, but kids recognize them as hours of fun! Using flat, plastic shapes with spikes, kids can create all sorts of things by placing Perler beads in different patterns. You can turn creations into necklaces, magnets, cool things to put inside school binders! Once the beads are in place, you’ll need to place parchment paper over them and iron on low until the beads melt together. Flip them over and do the other side, then they are stuck together and ready to go! 2. Break out the Legos because it’s time for a little friendly competition! Kids of all ages can get in on this one. Take turns tossing out ideas for things to build. For example, you might say the thing to build right now is a refrigerator. Then everyone tries their best to build a fridge.
8 July 2015 | PB Parenting |
Everyone’s creation will be different, so it’s not really a competition, but it’s fun seeing what everyone comes up with! 3. Art show. Kids love to draw and color! I have tons of artwork on my fridge, but how about REALLY showcasing their special artwork of the day? All you need is a long piece of thin rope or yarn hung from one end of a room to another. Then hang finished pictures using clothespins, invite over some friends for the grand gala opening, serve some snacks and you have an art show! 4. Restaurant. I loooove when my kids play restaurant because I get to be the diner sitting at the table reading my book while they serve me different foods and drinks! I don’t serve them back because, let’s face it, I do that every single night! The point is they are getting to play the grown-up and be cooks, waiters, hostesses and managers. 5. Play-dough. This one just takes a few minutes of your help and then the kids are off on their own, creating for hours. Of course you can just buy the stuff, but here’s a simple recipe, as well: 1 cup flour ½ cup salt 1 cup water
1 T. oil 2 t. cream of tartar Food coloring Mix all ingredients except food coloring on low heat in a pan. Once the consistency is of play-dough, take pan off heat, let cool, then add food coloring a few drops at a time. Knead until the color is all mixed. Grab some cookie cutters and other kitchen items and let the fun begin! Store in air-tight containers or baggies. 6. Write and illustrate a story. Kids are full of stories, but some aren’t old enough to write them down. That’s where you come in! Have each kid tell you a story that’s been running around in their mind and you can either write it out or type it. Then have your child illustrate it! If you’re creating the story on the computer, you can go to free photo sites like Pixabay to grab images for the story!

7. Scavenger hunt. Take out a piece of paper and write down different items in the house on it (if you have two teams doing the scavenging, write the same items down on another piece of paper). Ideas include: a winter glove, a cotton swab, a doll shoe, a pie pan, etc. Now send the teams off and whoever gets back with the most items from the list first wins some small trinket. 8. Board or other games. There are so many to choose from it’s insane! Depending on the ages of the kids and how much time you have, great games include: LIFE, Monopoly, Monopoly Jr., Candyland, Chutes & Ladders, Pop the Pig, and so many more! 9. Charades. This is a great classic you can play with two or a whole roomful of people. Start by having each team create their own cards by writing different words on pieces of construction paper.

Think places, movies, books, people, household objects, etc. Then the teams trade cards. Teams take turns picking a piece of paper and having one member act out what is written on the paper so the other team can try to guess what is being acted out. Keep track of time … maybe a minute per turn. If Team A doesn’t guess, no point is awarded and it’s now Team A’s turn to act out something for Team B to guess.

Warmer weather, longer days and smells of sizzling meat on the grill can only mean one thing — summer has officially arrived. As you gear up for the season of backyard barbeques and spontaneous weekend getaways, don’t let the cost of summer entertaining take a toll on your wallet. Consider stopping at ALDI, where you can find a variety of fresh produce and high quality cuts of grill-ready meat for up to 50 percent less* than traditional grocers, so you can spend less on your grocery bill and more on making summer memories last all year long. Sizzle into summer with these tasty tips and techniques that will make cookouts, road trips and impromptu pool parties mouthwatering for less: •
Less Flipping, More Grilling: When grilling for that backyard barbeque, don’t make the mistake of constantly lifting the lid on your

grill. Every time you lift the lid, you lose smoke, which will make your meat less flavorful! Make More Time for Fun: Keep recipes simple so you can join the party and avoid getting stuck in the kitchen. Sometimes all you need for big flavor is to infuse simple spices into your meals. Whip up a quick dry rub with common spices like cumin, chili powder, oregano and peppercorns, and use when grilling meat, fish and even veggies. Put a Fresh Twist on Comfort Foods: Add a twist to your barbeque staple foods to make your dish stand out. Stuff your burgers with jalapeño slices and cheddar cheese or top them off with unique flavors like pineapple, avocado or kiwi. It’s fun to mix and match different flavor combinations.
•
Keep It Cool in the Sun: Have homemade freezer pops in your freezer for impromptu pool parties and neighborhood slip and slides. Mix up this traditional summer treat by combining a classic fruit flavor with an exotic one. Coconut flakes, cilantro or honey will add a unique spin on a classic snack. Bring Adventure Home: Travel to a new city without going further than your local ALDI. Just switch up your go-to recipes with some regional flavors like Texas BBQ ribs or Chicago deep dish pizza. Follow the ALDI Summer Starts Here virtual road trip series for regional recipes, tips and tricks on the ALDI Simply Smarter Living Blog.

Raising a Summer Reader When the lazy days of summer arrive and your child's schedule is packed with swimming, camp, and family vacations, it can be a challenge to find time for reading. But kids' reading skills don't have to stop growing just because school's out. Here are some ways to make reading a natural part of their summer fun: Explore your library. Visit your local library to check out books and magazines that your kids haven't seen before. Many libraries have summer reading programs, book clubs, and reading contests for even the youngest borrowers. There are often incentives, such as a free book upon completing their summer reading lists. Young kids will feel extra grown-up checking out books with their own library card. Read on the road. Going on a long car trip? Make sure the back seat is stocked
with favorite reads. When you're not at the wheel, you can read the books aloud. Get some audiobooks (many libraries have large selections) and listen to them together during drive time. Make your own books. Pick one of your family's favorite parts of summer — whether it's baseball, ice cream, vacation, or the pool — and have your child draw or cut out related pictures from magazines and catalogs. Paste the pictures onto paper to make a book, and then encourage your child to write text for each page. A younger child can dictate the story for you to write down (using your child's words). When you're done, read the book together. Keep in touch. Kids don't have to go away to write about summer vacation. Even if your family stays home, you can encourage your child to send postcards, letters, or e-mails to friends and relatives. Ask a relative

to be your child's pen pal, and encourage a weekly exchange of letters, postcards, or e-mails. Keep up the reading rituals. Even if everything else changes during the summer, keep up the reading routines already in place at your house. Read with your kids every day — whether it's just before bedtime or under a shady tree on a lazy afternoon. And don't forget to take a book to the beach! Just brush the sand off the pages!
