Anyone got kids complaining "it's too hot"....?

Get one of those freezer blocks, or freeze a bottle of water, wrap it up in a tea tower and let them take it to bed.... like a hot water bottle in reverse !

Get a gel hot/cold pack, you can have it hot or cold, as it's gel and not water therefore won't wet the bed

Pop them up in the loft for an hour before bedtime (give them a rubics cube or summat). When you bring em down, they will feel naturally cool and sleep no problemo, I recon.

I usually go and sit in one of my cellers for half an hour, especially after a hard slog in the garden on a hot day. If its really hot like 40 in the sun and Ive been working hard I usually sit there in the nak on a bucket as sort of an anti sauna. I store my beer there too and enjoy a cold one.

Take them to a Mall, (shopping centre), where the termerature is always the same and go collect them at 8 p.m. Added advantage is you get them off your back so you can enjoy your day...

I have just been to the supermarket, I kind of lingered around the fridge area quite a bit

Back on topic - I fitted each big room in my house with a ceiling fan and I can tell you they are brill. Bit noisy, because the ceiling acts like a diaphragm, but well worth the cost.

Actually, I think they have missed a trick with these fans. There HAS to be a way of rubber or spring mounting them to lesson that problematic noise. Anyone here tried it?
