Kids Bowl Free, mosquito protection, and is it working?

Issue 80 // JAM

Hi!

So many of you wanted the corn muffin recipe. I usually forget which one I’ve used and look up a new one each time — try these from kosher.com.

Summer prep must included labeling — whether you’re sending to camp or taking Floafers, water bottles, scooters etc. to the park — these are a great option. I’m thrilled with how they’re lasting

Also, did you know Kids Bowl Free in specific alleys across the US? Check if there’s a location near you, and simply sign up for a great afternoon activity!

(Shoes not included and specific ages, days, and times apply.)

JUST ONE THING

JAM readers share one thing mothers today should know

I cherish the stories I heard from my grandparents, parents, and aunts. I realize that I should be writing down what I remember for my children and grandchildren.

No, it will not be a complete record. But even a little bit of information will help the next generation anchor themselves in our traditions and values.

JAM PARTNER

The Lingerie Shop’s adorable pajamas are perfect for camp, upstate, or cozying up on summer Friday nights.

Shop for the fam, or with a friend, so you can buy two, get the third free — for one week only! Use code JAM3FREE.

JUST FOR YOU

🍧HACK: Take ices to go. There’s nothing like handing an ice to a sweaty, red-cheeked kiddo on a summer afternoon. For outings, transfer ices to insulated bottles (like our favorite Owala) and they’ll stay frozen for hours. Toss in a few ice cubes for extra insurance. I do this to bring ices to my earliest carpool pickup to prevent her from sleeping in the car (a mom’s nightmare, ya know!)

🦟REC: Protect your fam. Mosquito bites don’t have to come with summer. Our favorite repellent types are: roll-ons, bracelets (I put them on my baby’s ankle), and stickers (great on stroller straps too!).

🍬TIP: Meet Reflections of Self therapeutic writing card deck — designed to help you slow down, check in with yourself, and reconnect with the wisdom already inside you. Each of the 100 cards features a poignant image of a young girl, a gentle writing prompt, and a reflection question to help you explore your inner world in a simple, grounded way. You don't need journaling experience, special skills, or even the right words. Whether you have five minutes or twenty, just pull a card, take a breath, and see what unfolds. It's a beautiful gift for yourself or someone you love. Buy it on Amazon —>
