School is going to be out very soon which means more time to play outside. Get your friends together for a game of baseball, tag or hide and seek. Remember to put on your sunscreen before going outside!

While playing outside in the warm weather, you can get easily dehydrated. Make sure to drink 5 8-oz. glasses of water each day.

Heading to the beach this summer? Pack a healthy lunch for you and your family! Get some whole-wheat bread and add some turkey and lean ham for a yummy sandwich. Leave the chips at home and bring some fruits or vegetables such as carrots, cherry tomatoes, grapes and apples.

There are lots of delicious foods for us to eat during the summer. For a fun snack, get some zucchini, tomatoes, mozzarella and basil and make some Zu-Canoes.

Ice cream is always a favorite dessert during the summertime. Make it a healthy choice by making your own Cherry Sorbet!
