tips
cool and safe in the sun!
Always wear a hat when out in the sun it lowers your
chance of sunstroke and prevents you from getting a
painful sunburn on your scalp!
Stay hydrated make sure youre getting enough water!
Stay in the shade while working on your tan
may sound fun, its a quick way to overheat and get
sunburned. Opt to sit in the shade when lounging at the
beach or park.
Wear breathable fabrics as the weather gets warmer,
its important to let your skin breathe in order to stay
as cool as possible. Natural fabrics like cotton, linen
and silk are best for beating the heat. Stay away from
synthetics like polyester and nylon.
Use sunscreen its absolutely imperative to use
sunscreen during the warmer months, and not only

Glossy Paper Flowers
Scissors
Old magazines
Glue stick
Paper fastener
Step 1: To make a bloom, cut two to four flower shapes in various
sizes and patterns, as shown. Ours measure 1 1/4 to 5 1/2 inches.
Tip: For a symmetrical flower like the ones pictured, trace a circle
onto a magazine page and cut it out (we used an old CD as a
template). Fold the circle in half several times, as you would a paper
snowflake, then cut the folded paper into the desired petal shape,
making sure you dont cut through the pointed tip.
Step 2: Roll a single magazine page into a slim tube for a stem
and secure it using a glue stick.
Step 3: Stack the floral shapes and secure them to the top of the
stem with a paper fastener. Pinch or fold the edges of the petals
to add dimension.

Step 1: Paint the stick of the plant poke with two coats of green
acrylic paint.
Step 2: Paint the head of your plant poke whatever color you Personalized Plant Pokes
choose. Do two coats to start with, paint a third if needed (light
colors may need a third coat). Allow paint to dry 20 minutes Wooden plant poke
between coats.
Acrylic craft paint (black & green,
Step 3: Once paint is dry, use black Sharpie速 or craft pen to write and whatever other color you choose)
childs name and plant (tulips, green beans, basil, etc.) on
the front of plant poke.
Black Sharpie速 marker
Paintbrush
Step 4: This step is optional and can be skipped if you prefer to
keep the project simpler for smaller children. Put a small amount Old toothbrush
(about the size of a dime) of black paint on a paper Acrylic sealer spray
plate. Add a couple of drops of water to the paint to thin it out a little.
Step 5: Using an old toothbrush, pick up some black paint. Before applying
this method to the plant poke, test it on a piece of newspaper. Flick the bristles
of the toothbrush by dragging your finger or thumb across them. This causes
the paint to spray off the brush onto your target, in this case, the newspaper.
Once you are happy with the result, flick the paint all over the front of the plant poke.
Step 6: You can also shade the outside of the plant poke, and again, this step is optional.
Using a paintbrush and thinned out black paint, paint a watery border around the edge
of the face of the plant poke. Use a piece of paper towel to blend it to your liking.
Step 7: Allow paint to dry completely and finish off with a spray coat of acrylic sealer.
Let dry and repeat for a total of two coats.
Tips:
Wooden plant pokes are available at Michaels速 Craft Stores for less than
50 cents each. They can also be found at discount department stores and
other arts and craft supply stores.
Try to place your pokes where they will not be constantly hit with water
from a sprinkler.
To keep your pokes lasting all summer, take them out every few weeks
and dust them off, then spray on another coat of acrylic sealer.

Summer is the perfect time to be outdoors. The
weather is warm, the grass is lush, and the sprinklers
are on full force. Introduce your kids to some new
games this summer and join in on the fun yourself!
Grab Bag
2 Brown Paper Bags
Slips of Paper
Something to Write With
Setup: Youll need a starting line, a designated turnaround point, and two teams (with at
least two players per team). Also, two brown bags, slips of paper, and a pencil.
On the slips, write instructions: Hop to the tree and back, Run to the slide, go down,
and run back, Do 25 jumping jacks. Make two of each instruction (so that the teams
will have identical sets). Put one in each bag. Each bag should have one slip per player.
To play: The first player on each team pulls a slip from the bag, performs the action, and
tags the next player, who does the same. The first team to finish all the actions wins.
Freezing Water Tag
Spray Bottle Filled with Ice Water
How to Play: In this icy take on traditional tag, each player is given a
spray bottle filled with ice water, and hand tagging is replaced with a cool squirt.
When a player is misted, he must freeze, but he can squirt others still in play. The
last player to remain unfrozen wins.
