Staying active as a family is both beneficial for your physical health and also a great way to create special memories. Summer is the perfect time to spend this quality time together! With longer days, summer break from school, and warmer weather, it’s easier to break out of your usual routine and make exercise feel like play. Why Summer Is a Great Time to Get Active When school’s out and schedules are a little more relaxed, there’s more room for spontaneous activities and outdoor adventures. This is a great chance to show your kids that exercise doesn’t have to be a chore, and instead, it can be part of the fun. And when you model healthy habits, your children are more likely to carry those habits into adulthood. Crea…

Deliver amazing service, ask real customers for honest feedback, and let your community build you up the right way.Because genuine reviews are worth way more than five stars bought from “Stars Booster.”👍 Clap if you agree, and share to remind…

By Right Angle Home Services | Lexington, KY Let’s shed a little light on something that often gets overlooked during a remodel—literally. At Right Angle Home Services, we’ve seen homeowners spend hours picking out the perfect countertop or tile pattern (we love it, really), but when it comes to lighting, it’s sometimes an afterthought. And we get it—light fixtures don’t always seem as exciting as a freestanding tub or a custom island. But here’s the truth: lighting can completely transform a space, and it doesn’t have to cost a fortune to do it. We partner with Ferguson Lighting, one of the most trusted lighting vendors in the country, to help our clients in Lexington find the perfect fixtures that match their vib…

Bug bites are a common part of summer, especially for curious kids who love to play outside. While many bites are just a minor nuisance, others can cause discomfort. In rare cases, they can lead to something more serious. As a parent, it helps to know what to expect, how to prevent bites in the first place, and when it might be time to seek medical help. Common Bug Bites You’ll See Kids are most often bitten or stung by a handful of common insects you’re likely to encounter in your backyard or local park. Understanding what kind of bite your child has can help you treat it appropriately and know when to watch for symptoms. Mosquitos –bites cause an itchy red bump at the bite site Bees and wasps – painful stings with …

Summer break is a much-needed time for kids to relax and recharge outside of the classroom. But without regular reading, some children (especially younger kids who are just learning to read) can experience a dip in reading skills and comprehension. Encouraging your child to read a little each day can help them stay on track while still enjoying all the fun of summer break. It’s also a great opportunity to teach them about your local library. Why Summer Reading Matters Reading during the summer helps your child retain the skills they learned during the school year while also building confidence for the next grade. It also supports their imagination, vocabulary, and problem-solving skills. There’s a book at the library for e…
