We have entered the weird limbo phase of summer when I'm unsure if I should be adding plans to our summer bucket list or dedicating all my free time to prepping for the return to school. 

If you’re in camp “savor summer,” try these easy experiments with stuff already in your cabinets. Or, cool off at insanely awesome swimming holes. For those of you in camp “you can never buy school supplies too early,” check out these must-have toys for incoming preschoolers. 

Also, Dolly Parton is coming to Washington, and she's bringing free books with her. We love Dolly!
