Due to reopening phases, summer trips may include more time spent traveling in the car. A few tips can help make the most of your road trip. With hand sanitizer back in stock, you will want to ensure its use when you exit the car and prior to any meals or snacks. Also consider bringing a trash receptacle with you in the car. By taking a cereal container and adding a trash can liner, you can create a small, yet functional garbage can. Be sure to prepare a large Ziploc with disposable napkins and utensils even if you think you will not need them. Pack non-messy, but yummy road trip snacks like these. |

Routines help establish normalcy by decreasing stress. Children, for instance, fear the unknown. So, while summer is definitely a time for fun, even a loose daily schedule is proven to be helpful for everyone at home. Everyday tasks may include getting ready in the morning, mealtimes, play times and rest times. During the summer, consider adding weekly customs such as game night or movie & pizza night. In addition to these fun weekly treats, think about blocking times for grocery store trips and laundry days. All in all, these set habits help establish appropriate expectations that strengthens shared time together. |

Summer brings with it an abundance of produce. Consider certain guidelines when stocking up to increase freshness. For bunched items, cut off any greens that may pull moisture out of your fruit or vegetable. Examples include beets and carrots. Removing fasteners such as rubber bands helps increase circulation, which aids in maintaining freshness. Finally, avoid washing less hearty varieties of produce, such as strawberries, as this can result in soggy items. |
