Hello, Summer!
Summer is finally here—hello sunshine, sticky popsicles, late bedtimes, and big adventures! Whether you’re packing for a family road trip, setting up a backyard tent, or splashing in the pool, this season is all about exploring, imagining, and just being a kid.
For parents (myself included!), summer can feel like a big shift. My own daughter is graduating this year and truly living her best life. It’s a reminder of how quickly time passes—and how important it is to enjoy these sunny moments (big or little) while they last.
This issue is filled with something for every kind of summer day. Rainy afternoon or long car ride? Dive into our crafts and puzzles. Packing your beach bag for a toddler? We’ve got you covered! From tips on staying safe in the sun to how to spot a concussion, we’re here to help you make the most of the season.
We also celebrate physical literacy with stories on dance, sports, and the community it takes to help kids thrive. Whatever your summer looks like, we hope this issue adds a little extra joy to it.
Grab your flip-flops—let’s make it a great one.
Happy summer,
