Suggestions for keeping cool:

• Don't forget your hats and sunscreen for both you and your little one
• Water, water and more water! Bring one bottle for your stroller to drink during class and one to keep in the car (not plastic!) to sip on your way home
• Don't over dress the little ones- remember that they are all warm and snug in the stroller or infant carrier already. Don't place a blanket over the infant carrier, it traps the heat and doesn't allow for air movement.
• To keep babies and tots cool in the stroller or infant carrier, you can use soft ice packs (available at Dicks Sporting Goods) and wrap it in a light towel and place it behind their back. You can also freeze water overnight in a water bottle- be sure to leave some extra room at the top for expansion- and then place it in a sock and set it next to them in the stroller or older kiddo's can have fun playing with it. Bonus, you can drink the water on your way home!
• Clip on fans
• Spray bottles- you can buy inexpensive spray bottles at Target or Walmart to fill with water for a fun spray break between stations! Some even have fans attached to them.
• Squirt guns- enough said :)
• Cooling towels- you get it wet and then it can wipe off with it during class and it gets cooler. I also just saw them at Costco in a two pack- one for you, one for your little one!
• And finally, don't forget to check our schedule or Facebook page. If there is ever a heat advisory predicted for class time we will cancel class for safety!
