Kids love playing by the pool. They enjoy having birthday parties, entertaining friends or just hanging out after school. The same goes for parents. Enjoying a braai and cooling off after a long day. Send kids home after a pool party only with good memories and a damp swimsuit. Provide sunscreen and insect repellent to avoid sunburn and bug bites. Here is a few tips to enjoy yourself: (Let us know If you enjoy Hadeda Music and don't forget to share and follow )

Remember when kids play outside they need plenty of fluids to keep from getting dehydrated. There might be alot of water around them in the pool but keep fresh, cool water with a ice block or two close by when the playing stops for a minute. Also get a few small fishbowls from your nearest petshop and fill it with fresh fruit juice, crushed ice and a colourful straw. "Kiddies fishbowl" Adults love ice cold water with fresh lemon in between drinks and snacks in the pool.
