small maple leafMITK Quick Tips

Stand out in a crowd. Use a bright coloured backpack. The bright colour allows you to be recongizable in a crowd.

Keep food cool. Pack a lunch bag cooler. A tip for keeping things cold is to freeze your juice boxes overnight and use them as ice packs the next day. It's a great treat at the end of a hot day to have a cold drink.

 

 

small maple leafPack it all in Checklist

Here is a great  little checklist to help you 'pack it all in'. There are so many places to go and people to see, be ready for anything.

 

 

 

Don’t forget:

 Sunscreen

  • Hat
  • Towels
  • First Aid Kit
  • Dry Bag
  • Water Bottles (green option -  many water stations out there)
  • Cool Scarf
  • Rain Poncho
  • Wet Wipes
  • Umbrella (for both sun and rain)

Into the Night

  • Flashlight
  • Kleenex
  • Sparkles
  • Glow Bracelets (safety)

small maple leafNeed some time away from the crowds?

Pack some travel games and find a quiet spot. A travel game selection can be found at Scholars Choice

A few of my favorites are:

~Kanoodle

~ Yikers

~ Magnetic Checkers

~ Cards

 

 From my family to yours, have a safe and happy Canada Day!
