How to cool off with the kids this summer {Photo: dancem0m.wordpress.com}

The weather’s been really hot in Montreal for a few weeks now and it’s been hard to cool off, especially if you don’t have air conditioning.

Now that the kids are out of school, here are some ideas of things to do with the little ones that will keep you cool:

• Indoor arena
  Take them to an indoor air conditioned arena or your local Y to play sports or join in some fun activities
• The movies
  Movie theaters are a great place to be when it’s hot outside
• A museum
  Look for a children exhibit in one of the many museums in your city and spend a day of fun and education in a cool space
• The pool
  Any pool will do, an outdoor one is good but an indoor one is even better
• To eat a popsicle
  A good popsicle is made of pure fruit juice. It will cool you off and is an added fruit serving to your child’s diet
• The mall
  Granted, the mall might not seem like the ideal place to be but some malls have childcare and children activities to keep your little ones busy
• The park
  Take them to a park that has a water fountain where they can run around, get wet and cool off
• Aqua park
  Spend the day playing around in an aqua park with several water slides and rides to keep you cool

Have a great rest of summer and stay cool!
