You know the kids should get out of the house. And in this heat, the community pool is the only place worth going. But they want to stay inside and lie — like melted sloths — in front of the TV or internet.
What to do?
Make it easier. Skip the preparations. Don't do the drive. Don't pack snacks. Just roll out the back door and slide into this Summer Waves Inflatable Under the Sea Kiddie Swimming Pool Play Center With Slide from Target.
It will be an instant mood booster for those overheated, overstimulated-by-media offspring of yours. But there are perks in it for you, too:
- You start with some online retail therapy.
- You can park in a chair and sip a chilled beverage while everyone calms down, cools off, and gets hungry for dinner.
- It's a lot cheaper than a trip to the water park. (It's on sale at Target for $17.99. Normally it's $25.99.)
Work smarter. Not harder.
