Anyone else in need of a weekend to recover from the long weekend? It’s summertime - kids are home from school and days are often less structured and more focused on fun. While all the playing and time spent with family and friends is what makes summer special, it can also leave little ones exhausted and, well…crazy! We’ve always found that bath time is the perfect reset when moods and “tudes” are going downhill. So, make bath time a consistent part of your summertime routine.

Today we're sharing one of our old go-to moves that is game-changer for a day when you need a contained activity that can totally flip the script on the mood - bath time with a popsicle! Directions (easy peasy) ☀️ Give your kids a popsicle in the bath…that's it! (told you it was easy) Nothing beats a messy treat when your kids are already in the tub! (It's kind of like driving through all of the mud puddles on your way to the car wash). Also there is some sensory grounding that comes from splashing in the warm water while having a cool treat that makes for the perfect reset. We hope this brings you a solid parenting win today and a few moments of much-needed rest.
