Keeping your child<br />
safe around water this<br />
summer …<br />
Swimming pool safety<br />
Each year, millions of Britons jet<br />
off to sunnier climes and stay in<br />
accommodation with swimming pools.<br />
It is essential to consider a number of<br />
factors when booking your holiday to<br />
ensure you keep your children safe<br />
around the water.<br />
• Before you go away consider<br />
enrolling your children in swimming<br />
lessons to help them learn this lifesaving<br />
skill<br />
• Check pool safety arrangements<br />
for where you’re staying in<br />
advance. For example, check if your<br />
accommodation has alifeguard on<br />
duty at all times<br />
• Be cautious about booking private<br />
villas that don’t have safety fencing<br />
– young children are curious and can<br />
easily wander off and jump in to an<br />
unsupervised pool<br />
• While you’re away:<br />
Always supervise children near water<br />
and keep aclose eye on them when<br />
they’re in the pool<br />
Be aware that children don’t shout out<br />
for help when they’re drowning, so it’s<br />
vital that you’re vigilant at all times<br />
Understand that inflatables are<br />
not asubstitute for supervision or<br />
swimming ability * 1<br />
And on the beach ….<br />
So, where is asafe place to swim?<br />
• On alifeguarded beach<br />
• Ared and yellow flag indicates asafe<br />
place to swim or use inflatables<br />
• Ared flag is asign for danger and<br />
means NO SWIMMING. Never go in<br />
the water when the red flag is flying<br />
• Always be aware that there may be<br />
hazards that you cannot see<br />
Young children should always be<br />
supervised when on the beach. Make<br />
sure you explain to your children that<br />
it’s not safe to swim on their own in<br />
the sea. * 2<br />
Everyone Active’s award-winning<br />
swim lessons help adults and children<br />
to learn how to swim, float, and gain<br />
confidence in and around the water.<br />

Exposure tosunlight for short periods<br />
of time helps the body produce<br />
Vitamin D, essential for healthy bones,<br />
but also implicated in preventing a<br />
range of other conditions from asthma<br />
and cancer,todiabetes<br />
and multiple sclerosis<br />
Sleep tight<br />
Exposure todaylight<br />
helps to<br />
regulate some of the body’s<br />
natural biological rhythms and<br />
can help regulate sleep<br />
Dr Ranj is encouraging families<br />
to hurry outside to tap into<br />
some bountiful, beneficial<br />
natural light, before it’s too late and the<br />
nights start drawing in. The Get Well<br />
Soon hospital doctor leads by example,<br />
saying he loves getting out into the<br />
park and harnessing the extra boost of<br />
productivity that the longer days help to<br />
kick start in his system.<br />
“<strong>Summer</strong> is my favourite time of<br />
year. Ifind that when we have brighter,<br />
longer days it automatically elevates my<br />
mood and increases my productivity.<br />
“Not only do Iachieve more, but Iget<br />
the urge to be more active too. Icannot<br />
wait to get outside and go for awalk<br />
around the park!<br />
“As the days get sunnier and longer,<br />
it’s important to make the most of them<br />
whilst they last. Here are five reasons<br />
why it’s good to get outside…”<br />
Healthy hearts<br />
Getting outdoors leads to increased<br />
physical activity,which is<br />
important in maintaining ahealthy<br />
cardiovascular system as well as<br />
reducing the risk of obesity and<br />
long-term medical problems<br />
Feel-good<br />
factor<br />
Play in outside spaces<br />
encourages social interaction and<br />
development, as well as enhancing<br />
mood, which helps boost<br />
mental wellbeing<br />
<strong>Summer</strong> is my favourite time of year. Ifind that<br />
when we have brighter, longer days it automatically<br />
elevates my mood and increases my productivity<br />
Our summer tips for...<br />
STAYING INDOORS<br />
With simple changes you can brighten<br />
up family life and soak in more beneficial<br />
daylight – without thefuss of decamping<br />
from home. Time for a couple of extra<br />
jobs around the home? Polishing up your<br />
window panes helps letinmaximum<br />
daylight for energizing results. Or position<br />
your dining table next to a sunny window, if<br />
possible. This furniture move helps everyone<br />
soak up nourishing bursts of daylight.<br />
GLORIOUS GARDENS<br />
Making the effort<br />
to move small snippets<br />
of life outdoors is well worth it. Families<br />
who’ve invested in garden furniture<br />
could aim to sit outdoors seven days<br />
a week (weather allowing), and not just<br />
on special occasions or weekends.<br />
Taking snacks outdoors is a good way<br />
to soak up natural light, with theadded<br />
bonus of saving carpets from crumbs.<br />
Reading or creating art<br />
together outside,<br />
bundled up under ablanket ifthebreeze<br />
sets in, also reduces screen time and<br />
ups children’s natural light quota.<br />
LIGHT FANTASTIC<br />
Always look on the bright side – even on<br />
cloudy days, outdoor light is lots brighter<br />
than indoor lighting.<br />
Outdoor light helps to balance out screen<br />
time and might encourage healthier eyesight<br />
in youngsters, research suggests.<br />
Remember, don’t forget sun screen, hats<br />
and shades on hot, sunny days.<br />
Brain<br />
training<br />
Exploring the outside environment<br />
encourages curiosity,imagination<br />
and the formation of new ideas,<br />
all of which are important for<br />
mental development<br />

Lempen Puppet Theatre<br />
Trunk, Tail, Ears or Wings? Carnival<br />
creates itself from all sorts of things!<br />
This is “Carnival of the Animals” but not<br />
as we know it. Dissected for body part<br />
potential to create the “ultimate animal”,<br />
we take inspiration from the music by<br />
Camille Saint-Saëns, alittle help from<br />
Charles Darwin and awhole lot of cardboard<br />
to mash up ashow full of puppet<br />
possibility. Inspiration and delight for<br />
everyone from 4to104.<br />

The Reluctant Dragon<br />
When adragon is discovered up on<br />
the Downs, the Boy is not in the least<br />
surprised. He’s always known the cave<br />
there was adragon cave, so it seems<br />
only right for a dragon to be living in<br />
it. But this particular dragon is not a<br />
bit like the ones in fairy tales -this one<br />
writes poetry and doesn’t like fighting!<br />
A touching, sweet and funny tale of<br />
bravery, friendship and derring-do for<br />
all the family.<br />

Have a busy summer with the National Trust<br />
Beningbrough Hall,<br />
Gallery and Gardens<br />
Unleash your wild ones this<br />
summer for a new adventure.<br />
We've said goodbye to<br />
the trusty old fort in the<br />
wilderness play area and in<br />
its place is a massive pyramid<br />
tower and climbing wall<br />
waiting to be scaled. There’s<br />
even a swing bridge and two<br />
new slides to sail down.<br />
On Fridays in August meet<br />
up with Orville, Willow, Gizmo and the team from Wise Owl Bird of Prey<br />
Rescue on Feathered Friends Fridays in August, hold the birds and watch<br />
their impressive flying displays.<br />
And every Monday – Wednesday join the Artrageous craft workshops to<br />
make something different every week of the holidays.<br />
Fountains Abbey &<br />
Studley Royal<br />
Could you make your own<br />
clothes? That's what the monks<br />
of Fountains Abbey had to do<br />
to make their robes, as they<br />
couldn't just pop to the shops!<br />
Come to Swanley Grange and<br />
kids can have a go at spinning<br />
wool and weaving on a loom<br />
just like the monks used to. They<br />
don’t have to make their own<br />
clothes though, we’ll be helping them to make a simple friendship bracelet<br />
or if they want to test themselves, they can have a go at weaving a hat.<br />
Down in the grounds find all four new art works in the garden. Spot Polly<br />
before she sees you; listen closely for the drips and drops of the long lost<br />
bathing house at the Listening Tower; take some weird and wonderful selfies<br />
in the Gazing Ball's mirrored sphere and find the cloud – will it rain above<br />
you? Pick up a folly family trail and set off exploring.<br />
Nunnington Hall<br />
LEGO’s Brick Flicks<br />
exhibition is on display<br />
at Nunnington for the<br />
summer, showing some<br />
of the most iconic<br />
and memorable film<br />
moments of all time.<br />
See how many family<br />
favourites you can<br />
recognise with scenes<br />
from movies including<br />
ET, Jurassic Park and<br />
Peter Pan on display.<br />
Kids can join the ‘big build’ competition to make their own LEGO creations.<br />
We’ll have plenty of play LEGO for them to play with and they can use their<br />
imaginations to build whatever they like, with a chance to win their own<br />
bucket load of LEGO.<br />
Ormesby Hall<br />
Take a trip down the rabbit hole for Ormesby’s Alice in Wonderland inspired<br />
summer of adventure. Kids can follow the shrinking Alice trail through the<br />
house and garden, stopping to try things along the way. Make sure they’re<br />
not tricked by the Cheshire Cat on their way to make crowns, bunny ears<br />
and some Alice inspired crafts.<br />
Out in the garden and on the lawns we’re celebrating a summer of sport<br />
with games including tennis, badminton, cricket and archery to come and<br />
have a go with.<br />
