More Summer Fun Ideas

Need something fun to do with your boys this summer?

Cook something!

Not you, by yourself. You do that every day. Come up with a way for your boys to cook. Now, of course, this will vary with age, but there are lots of ways to approach this. Set a date and make a plan. You could:

• Let the boys grill with Dad.
• Let the boys cook something easy with you or Dad.
• If they're old enough, give them a little guidance and let them cook by themselves.

If you're not that brave, try a few of these ideas:

• Proclaim it "red" day. Everyone wears something red to the table and you fit as many red foods as you can into the menu.
• Try something new that the kids have never had before.
• Have a picnic in the yard -- by candlelight!

Just change things up a little. Get creative. Get cookin'!

For the love of boys,
