THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED.

I have been LOVING the weather here in DC. Back home in Louisiana, we have had the air conditioner running and the baby pool out and filled since late March (when it hit 85), and we haven’t looked back yet. However, I realize for those of you who live in parts of the country or world where summer doesn’t exist year round, summer is officially upon you too.

Warm Biscuit Bedding Company has lots of fun things to keep kids busy over the summer. One of my favorites is this ladybug tree swing that sells for $29. Matter of fact, I love it so much I sort of wish they made a big-girl version of it too! What can I say, I’m a kid at heart!

I also love this complete kit of Camp Gear — it comes with a polyurethane rain cape in a neoprene bag, a synthetic alarm whistle in case of trouble, and a screw-top box for items found on the way. How much fun would this be for overnight camping trips in the backyard? It retails for $35.
It rains here at 2 pm almost every day during the summer — sometimes it is a brief shower and sometimes it lasts into the night, but during a Louisiana summer you can bet on rain almost every day. So what to do with the kids once the rain comes? You can try out this “Look and Cook Cookbook“, with 50 simple kid-tested recipes to occupy the youngest chefs in the making. It retails for $20.
