Don't you look forward to those lazy summer afternoons ahead?
Lounging in a hammock?
Sipping lemonade and listening to the crickets?

Yeah. Me neither. Summer as a parent ain't quite as lounge-tastic as it once was.
However, the fact that Mom doesn't get a nap (in any season) doesn't stop kids from grabbing forty winks. If your summer schedule wreaks havoc on your child's nap routine, never fear.

First of all, gardening is very tiring. You have to take breaks when you're doing this stuff, people!
Taking off your gardening gear is optional, of course. The charming daughter of blogger James at The Rock Father prefers to be ready to weed on a moment's notice.
It's important to stay hydrated in the summer. Admittedly, I think some flowers may have be abandoned while still thirsty.
Of course, summer shouldn't be just work, work, work. Resting in a swing is key to enjoying yourself!
Or you can snooze by the pool. Or in the pool. Or...in the pool inside your house.
If you do have to be inside, there's no reason to miss out on wearing your stylish shades, you know. Blogger Beta Dad's daughter finds that the proper accessories guarantee sunny dreams.
At the end of a long day, who doesn't love to throw a few hot dogs on the grill? Or take their dogs...under the grill?
However you choose to wile away those summer days, be sure to be well-rested. We can guarantee your kids will be...
