Get physical! Choose a new activity, or pick one you both love. Anything from hula hooping to rock climbing, to dancing, bowling, roller-skating, hiking, swimming and more can be healthy for your body, mind and relationship.

What would you like to do with your daughter?

Bowling and hiking are my favorites. She enjoys those and rock wall climbing and skating. I'm not good at skating but I like it. I can't rock wall climbing. My fears get the best of me :)

She's teaching you your body's physical and emotional limits. :)

We generally take walks together & she has been using the treadmill (DH keeps fit that way).


Swimming is also a fun thing we do

Omgosh no matter what we do together we always have fun! We love swimming a lot, going on scenic nature walks, playing badminton, play yard games, go to the mall, go to amusement parks and daytrips, local festivals. Play really funny board games. Watch tv or movies together, talk and laugh and so much more

thanks

Quoting Dayna29:

I'm not sure. Its the stuff that we put in our mouths. My sister told it to  me. She has dogs and also an EMT. But you might want to ask a vet. Tell them what you are going to do and they might be able to tell you. I would hate to give you wrong advise on this one.

Quoting rollinhard07:

Thanks, is it safe for dogs?


Quoting Dayna29:

To help with the mosquitos, spray listerine around your yard.

Quoting rollinhard07:

Us too, as well as go outside and kick around the soccerball, but it's too hot to do it during the day and mosquitoes at dusk.





Quoting TurboMom81:

We love to workout together and play Dance Central 2 on XBox Kinnect. It's a little too hot for any outings.

We take a walk around the neighborhood together every other evening, after it has cooled off a bit.
