As your children enjoy their warm-weather
playtime outdoors, try these tips to keep them
safe and organized.
1. Place a large plastic container on your back
porch or deck. Make sure it's big enough to
hold all their outdoor toys. Insist on a daily
clean-up time.
2. Fill a cooler with ice, drinks, snacks and wipes
so kids won't need to go in and out of the house
as much.
3. Set up an "outdoor supply box" filled with
hats, sunscreen, sunglasses, flip flops, towels,
bug repellent and a small first aid kit. Keep it
near the door.
4. Keep sand and water outside by placing a
mat and tub for soiled shoes and clothes
near the door.
5. Store a tire pump and wrench near kids'
bicycles. Teach kids how to inspect their
bicycles weekly.
