The team at AFC Urgent Care Ooltewah wants you to raise your hand if you are ready for summer break! Chances are you are and you aren’t. Fortunately, there are ways to have fun this summer with the kiddos while also improving your health! Have a Happy, Healthy Summer! While you might be happy that the kids are almost out of school for the summer, you could also be worried about hearing, “I’m bored!” every single day this summer. Fortunately, there are many activities you can do right here in the Chattanooga area that can help keep the kids entertained while not hurting your wallet too much. Start by having some fun right in your own backyard! You can create an obstacle course for the kids to race through, set up a game of baseball or soccer in the backyard, or go on a scavenger hunt throughout the neighborhood. Plus, the exercise during the day will help to keep all family members healthier during the summer months. Of course, there will be days you will want to get out of the house—and your kids will, too. Start by taking a trip to downtown Chattanooga for the fun events being held throughout the summer at the Tennessee Aquarium and Creative Discovery Museum. If you don’t feel quite like spending the extra money and it’s a nice summer day, take a homemade picnic down to Coolidge Park, where the kids can play in the fountain or play frisbee in the grass while you relax with a good book! While summer has many sunny days, the rain must fall eventually. Spend rainy days indoors having family fun by learning how to cook a healthy meal together, or head to the IMAX for an educational show! There is plenty of fun to be had indoors, too. You just have to look for the opportunities! Remember, even if your kids are on summer break, we are not. Visit AFC Urgent Care Ooltewah this summer if you or your family needs medical attention.
