[quote=Anonymous]Play it by ear. Kids will let you know when they're tired and ready to leave. I used to take my kids to the park every day when they were young, even on very hot days. I would just choose a park with more shade or wait until the time of day that it had a lot more shade. Pack enough drinks in an insulated backpack. One trick I used was to not pack a ton of drinks. When the drinks ran out and they said they were thirsty, then it was time to go home. And they would leave if they were getting thirsty. My kids are now teens and reminisce sometimes about all the time spent outside at the park playing. [/quote]
