Whoever coined the phrase “a walk in the park” to indicate that something is easy clearly never took children to a park.

🥇 Learning tip
With school just round the corner for so many, we thought it’d be useful to share some of the things you can be doing to help prepare your kid before starting.
*we’re praying they’re not a pre-requisite for being allowed past the school gates because quite frankly some of the things on the list are definitely in the “I can sometimes” camp…

🎾 Activity of the week
You’d be forgiven for thinking that red cups were only allowed to be used when playing American drinking games. But, you’d be wrong.
You can buy them on Amazon and they’re evidently a pretty cheap way to keep your child busy too. Perhaps one day your child will thank you for their super-human flip cup ability!

💻 Hack of the week
Fed up of clogging the bins with the reams of art brought home from nursery?
Well, perhaps there’s a way to both clear your fridge door whilst also avoiding any disappointment for your little ones.

⭐ How the stars do it
After picking up a gold medal of his own, LeBron James was seen taking his daughter to support the USA women’s basketball team in the pursuit of their eighth straight gold medal against hosts France.

Upcoming dates that it might be worth having up your sleeve:
National ‘Be An Angel’ Day | Thursday 22nd August; in all honesty, we’re not sure our toddler recognises national holidays, but what the hell, we’ll give it a go.
That’s it for this week folks.
Thanks again for reading, as always we leave you with one HILARIOUS joke to share with the family.
Most bald people still own a comb.
They just can’t part with it.
