This summer has been especially rough when it comes to ideas for keeping busy. With many parks and pools closed, it seems like it’s up to mom (or dad, babysitter, grandma, etc.) to come up with fun ideas for outdoor play. Last week, the kids and I made sidewalk chalk paint, and it was a blast! It only took three ingredients and a few minutes to mix up a batch. It really turned out to be a great activity, so I thought I would share it with you all. Check out this post for the recipe and to see how our DIY sidewalk chalk paint turned out.

Homemade Orange Spice Cleaner
Cleaning with vinegar is a trick that goes back generations. It’s a simple, inexpensive, natural alternative to many chemicals that we use to clean our homes. Unfortunately, many people don’t really like the smell of vinegar, and it is one that can linger. This homemade orange spice cleaner masks the vinegar smell plus adds in oranges, which are said to have antibacterial properties of their own. Throw in some germ-busting essential oils, and you have a great multipurpose solution that will clean your home’s surfaces and leave behind a nice, pleasant smell behind! Check out my recipe for homemade orange spice cleaner below.
