headaches caused by heat and humidity, too much time spent in air-conditioning, and unwelcome changes in routine.

But to kids, just being outside can be a revelation. There's birdsong, and water, and dirt…
Summer is a great time for reconnecting with your child, for truly listening to him or her - for deep, true bonding with this little person you are bringing up.
Does that seem daunting? If you're not sure how to begin, listen to this episode of We Turned Out Okay!
Today, I am excited to interview Sunshine Parenting podcast host Audrey Monke, who has directed a summer camp for more than 30 years.
In that time Audrey has seen it all: extreme homesickness, parental worries, and, again and again, the life-changing magic of summertime.
We tap into her knowledge of how to make summer great, as Audrey shares THE 3 most important things you can do this summer to capture that magic, to truly enjoy the time you spend with your young child.
