cool Thing to do with your hot beb
The weather is heating up in Perth and I have been struggling to find nice things to do with Olive. I struggle in the heat, sweaty, yucky, sticky. BLEUGH! Olive is also not a fan. She gets fussy and unsettled when the temperature is over 30 degrees, so I have been coming up with ideas to keep me AND her entertained, but also keep the both of us cool.
Get it done before the sun: Always get all errands done early in the morning before it gets too hot. For example, last week I had to get some craft supplies because I knew I wanted to spend the day making a few thing. I got up early and went to Spotlight at 9am. We were home by 10am before the heat set in and we could craft away to our hearts content in the aircon for the rest of the day.
The Beach or Pool: While you may be thinking "duh Meg, of course swimming is a good idea!" you could be forgetting about the dangerous UV rays! If you are going swimming with your bub, make sure you check the UV index online before packing the car. I always take Olive after 4pm because the UV is no longer dangerous usually at that time. Even if you think you're safe, with sunscreen, a hat and umbrella the suns rays can reflect off the surface of the water and burn your bub, so be careful!
Another tip is, indoor pools! And yeah, they are a bit gross, but a last resort is a last resort right?!
The Movies: Lots of cinemas have mums and bubs sessions where the movies are played a little quieter and they cater to groups of mums who want to see a film without booking a baby sitter. AIRCON people! Not something you can do every day but it is a nice treat!
Galleries or Museums: This may not work if you have a rowdy bub, but if you have a little snoozer like me, a toddle through an art gallery or museum could be just the ticket. It's quiet so your little beb can sleep and you can enjoy some exhibits in a cool environment. And my fave, the gallery shop. I always get stuck looking at books on the way out! Large Galleries and museums usually have pretty good parent facilities too, so if you need to change a poopy nappy, it's not a struggle.
A Picnic: This is also an early morning or late afternoon activity. If it is getting really hot in the day I wouldn't recommend going out mid day. Take a blanket and some snacks and drinks and either walk or drive your bub to a a park or by a river. Then set up under a shady tree and play! I like to do this to shake up tummy time a bit. If you have a play mat, take that too! Keep bubby entertained while they get their exercise! Then if they fall asleep, you can read a book under a tree! Bliss!
Visit a friend: Whether they have a baby or not, visiting a friend is a nice thing for you and your bub to do. It gets you out of your regular space and you get to have some grown up chats, or simply have someone else hold your sweaty baby for a while!
Craft: As I said earlier, a craft day is a great thing to do on a super hot day, especially if you can craft while sitting on your bed or couch. I made pompoms recently and had Olive propped up on a big pillow so we could chat while I worked! after I finished each pompom she could look at and hold them! We has the best time! And again, AIRCON people~!
Backyard Bath: on a really stinking hot day recently, Olive and I took a bath in the backyard to cool down. Totally recommend this! And if you don't have a bath, a paddle pool will do the trick. My bath is tucked away under my washing line and surrounded by plants, so it's very safe and shady for Olive!
What do you do to stay cool with your baby? Let me know, I would love to try some other People's suggestions!
