The 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays! Growing up it was the time that my family (even those distant cousins) gathered together for a weekend of fun, food, and fireworks. There is nothing worse than spending your holiday sick or injured, so we have complied plenty of resources to help you plan a celebration that is fun, but also keeps everyone safe:
- Keeping Food Safe- If you are planning a picnic, covered dish, or just grilling out, use these tips to keep food safe (and delicious)
- Firework Safety– check out previous posts on firework safety or download this fireworks safety checklist.
- Fireworks Photography- Use these tips to photograph those beautiful fireworks!
- Boating Safety- If you plan to spend some time on the water, share these safety tips with your family before heading out.
- Going camping? Try these family friendly campfire recipes!
- Stay hydrated! Read this post for some hydration tips, or make this cool DIY neck cooler to beat the heat!
We hope you have a fabulous 4th of July and that these tips and resources add to the fun!
