S
ummertime: simply put, I love it. Warm sunshiny days where you transition from pyjamas to
bathing suits and back again—where you’re outside frommorning until night, and weeks go
by without even touching a TV remote or recharging an iPad. Tome, this is what summer
is all about: suntans and popsicles, evening swims, long hikes, pier jumps and playgrounds.
Thankfully, in our neck of the woods, opportunities for summer adventures with your children are
unlimited. There’s no need to haggle over screen time when the great outdoors awaits.
