Keep kids active now that school’s out! Some cheap and easy outdoor activities:
• Make a backyard obstacle course
• Pitch a tent for backyard camping
• Encourage their artistry with sidewalk chalk
• Decorate rocks with paint, markers and stickers
• Make a scavenger hunt
• Build a cardboard box castle
• Make tin-can stilts with coffee cans and string

Keep your A/C running right:
• Prune back shrubs at least two to three feet around your unit (Wait until the unit isn’t running before pruning and be careful not to damage the delicate aluminum fins on the outside of the unit).
• Pour a cup of bleach in the access opening in the drain line (located near the AC unit) every year to kill any algae, mold, or mildew in the pipe so water won’t backing up inside your unit.

With hot weather on the way, remember to replace the filter on your central cooling system so your unit will work efficiently.
A quality filter will also help reduce the amount of dust in your home and remove some of the pollutants from the air.
