I received LISTERINE? Brand products and a Walgreens gift card from Johnson & Johnson Healthcare Products Division of McNEIL-PPC, Inc. and The Motherhood as part of my participation in the LISTERINE? Brand Totally Taken Care Of program. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are my own.
Summer is a busy time of year. My kids have been out of school for just over as week and I’m already feeling the pressure while trying to work from home, yet keep them occupied at the same time. It seems we’re always running around and have been constantly busy on the weekends. Summer?only lasts 3 months in Wisconsin, so we have little time to pack it all in! I’ve had to get creative and find new ways to keep my family healthy during this rush of a season.?Here are some of my tips.
1. Take care of your mouth -??Oral care is very important and don’t let the rush of summer stop anyone in your family from taking care of their mouths.?LISTERINE? TOTAL CARE can Totally Take Care of everyone’s mouth in the family and we keep a bottle in the beach bag that we keep in the car just in case we’re gone for the whole day or someone accidentally forgets to brush before we leave.
2. Stay hydrated – The heat and humidity can be overbearing at times and heat stroke can happen in an instant. Keep your body hydrated and healthy by drinking lots of water. It’s good for you!
3. Eat your fruits and veggies – The great things about summer is that fruits and vegetables are always in season. We grow our own veggies and make sure to include both fruits and vegetables into every meal. They make great snacks too!
4. Get active – Now I’m not saying go off and run a marathon, but there are ways that you can get active and exercise without a whole lot of effort. Instead of letting the dog out back, take him for a brisk walk or run. Take a dip in the pool or lake. Swimming is great exercise, plus you’ll be able to cool off too!
Walgreens has a wide range of wellness products for the entire family. They can help keep you “Totally Taken Care Of” with their oral health and personal care products. And we all know that summer brings more scrapes, bruises and an occasional illness and Walgreens has you covered on that department too with bandages, medicine and vitamins.
