Episode 7: Active summer vacations

Michelle (mom of 3) and Jenn (mom of 2) chat about their approaches to keeping kids active in summer (hint: they’re not big planners) and discuss:

encouraging kids to be creative and independent

planning active vacations

making summer more memorable with family activity

Michelle and Jenn also shared their tips for planning active vacations, including:

giving the kids a say

packing active gear and toys

making sure everyone has good hiking or walking shoes

adding a creative twist to your activity

They also share ideas for staycations, debate whether today’s moms have it tougher than our own moms did and discuss an interesting post entitled How This Reformed Helicopter Mom Saved Summer Vacation (2machines.com).
