Don’t keep the kids cooped up in the house, it's summer! Let them burn off some energy by playing everyone’s old favorite tag. Switch it up so the kids don’t get bored with the same old game. Freeze tag is fun, and gives the old game a bit of a new spin.

Sure, all the running around is fun, but make sure the kiddies don’t get hurt. It’s a good idea for the little ones to wear shoes that are safe to run around in; so stay away from flip flops! Try keeping them in one main area, so no one gets lost or runs too far. You’re it!
