Love to Swim and Tumble School

*discourse: this is a sponsored post

Summer is here and it's getting hot outside. That means unless we are swimming at the pool or enjoying the splash park, we probably won't be spending as much time outside as the kids are used to. I'm planning our summer activities and know we are going to need to find some active things to do to burn off that excess energy. 

Micah has been watching Abby head off to gymnastics all school year long. The loving big sister that she is has come home and worked on teaching Micah some of things that she has learned and has gotten him all excited for the day that he can join in on the 'big kid' gymnastics. Until then I think I've found a happy medium - something he can burn off some energy doing and he'll get to do some gymnastics like sister until he is old enough for the gym that Abby attends. 

Love to Swim and Tumble School’s mission is to develop lifelong swimmers who are confident and masterful. Founded in 2001 by Mary Reilly-Magee, Love to Swim and Tumble School has locations in San Antonio and Schertz that provide swim lessons, tumble lessons, parties, preschool and more! Students range in age from six months to adult, and in skill level from beginner to advanced. For additional information, links to resources and water-related articles, visit www.love-to-swim.com.

Splashtown

*disclosure: this is a sponsored post 

Summer is coming and we have some weeks and weekends booking up quickly with VBS for both kids, swim lessons, a wedding and various other events. However there is still plenty of time to fill with fun. I've seen ideas on pinterest for having a 'plan' for each day and I'm thinking I'll try and follow that so the kids know what to look forward to. 




I also want to make a summer bucket list for us so we don't overlook or forget any ideas. I've got two more weeks of school for Abby to make our list then it's on! 





On of the things on that bucket list is Splashtown because my kids LOVE water. (Not counting swim lessons we've been to the pool 3 of the last 5 days and it was closed one of those days)

Personalized Kids Name Labels:

Kidecals are an absolute must if you've got kids and hate losing their stuff. Label water bottles, clothing, books, toys, sports gear with their trendy and fun designs.  kidecals are crazy durable...dishwasher, washing machine AND dryer safe, and they don't damage surfaces. Love it.




Waterproof Labels:

The annoying thing about using a sharpie to label stuff is it eventually washes away - or non-water proof stickers that leave your sippy cups with sticky residue on them! Kidecals waterproof name labels are insanely durable and can stick to just about anything...from clothes to water bottles...and stay put through wash after wash after wash. Oh - and pool toys? Done and DONE.


Fun Mustache Stickers:

Kidecals fun Partystache stickers are great to use as drink markers, and the Mustache Chalkboard Stickers are a sassy way to label/organize anything in your pantry or craft room. (They're also fun for labeling foods or drinks at a potluck or party!)


Chalkboard Labels that you can write on:

Chalkboard labels are the easiest way to get organized fast without having to create new printed labels from scratch.  kidecals makes the prettiest designs, and their chalkboard labels are super durable and can even go through the dishwasher!

Daycare Labels:
If you have kids in daycare then you know how important it is to label EVERYTHING. kidecals daycare labels are not just super cute, they're dishwasher, washing machine and dryer safe, and stay put on anything from clothing, to baby's favorite lovey to sippy and snack cups.

As seen on the Today Show personalized clothing labels:
kidecals is such a fun site for personalized clothing labels! If you're getting ready to send your kids off to camp, you'll need to label everything. Labels HAVE to be waterproof and washing machine safe. kidecals clothing labels are crazy durable and I love their cute designs. They were even featured on the Today Show!

Camp Labels:
It's obvious kidecals is founded by a mother of two boys, because not only are kidecals designs amazingly cute er - "cool" for boys, they are super duper durable for all the stuff I need to label for camp. kidecals are dishwasher, washing machine AND dryer safe. They literally do not come off. Ever. kidecals makes the perfect camp labels for this mom, who is expecting her kids to return with every single thing she packed. (yeah right.)


And mom isn't left out either. How cute are these keyboard labels?
