Now that the kids have outgrown their kiddie pool, keeping them outside and cool has been a challenge. When there is no air conditioning and no where to escape the heat, hanging out outside becomes less than desirable because you just go from really, really hot to really hot. Last night it was 30°C (86°F) upstairs in the bedrooms. Soooo not comfortable to sleep when it is that hot even with fans. But my brother in Iraq is enduring 125°F temps, and as I write this a thunder storm is rolling through bringing some cool breezes and rain so I will complain no further!!
Today was grocery shopping day so we made it a point to hit the water toy aisle and get squirt guns for the kids. No complaints from them to get outside and run around today!

You might try letting the kids sleep with a frozen re-useable cold pack (wrapped in a towel or stuffed in a sock if small enough).
