In fact, my mom swore by the stuff for everything from getting whites whiter to killing strains of viruses you’ve probably never heard of With more demands on families, and the availability of new technology and services, I don’t focus nearly as much as much of my time tackling general home chores as my mom did. Regardless, laundry seems inescapable and, like many busy parents who live in a perpetual state of dirty laundry, most days I’m pretty sure I could do a load (or 5) with my eyes closed. Solving Your Biggest Laundry Challenges with Clorox If you’re a mom to kids who haven’t met a piece of clothing they can’t ruin the first time they wear it like I am, then you know firsthand the necessity of a powerful stain fighting solution. Like the bleach crystals, the zero splash bleach packs are a no-splash solution that allows for mess free laundry and cleaning in your home.

Personally, the teen movies, with their coming of age, everything is possible vibe, are my favorites to watch—first love being discovered, friendships tested being tested, people changing. She builds a relationship with fellow awkward teen (whose crush she happens to be), Erwin, finds support from her similarly cynical teacher, Mr. Bruner, realizes that the people she thought were out to get her are just trying to do their best, and ultimately makes a lot of discoveries about herself, her family, life, and love. While I initially found Nadine and her teenage dramatics exhausting, immature, and somewhat unrealistic (I mean, my kids aren’t gonna throw a not going to school tantrum and get away with it), she grew on me throughout the film as I began to relate to a lot of her struggles. Based on the fact that he’s made me watch this no less than three times, this one didn’t just make my best teen movies list, it also made Dude 3’s best of the best list for sure.

And, if you’re not feeling super confident about your fishing skills, check out Take Me Fishing to see if they have a pop-up, Off the Hook, learn to fish experience coming to your neck of the woods soon. Here’s what’s next on the Off the Hook Tour: If you’re not able to attend a Take Me Fishing learn to fish event You can’t just walk up to any body of water, toss your line in, and get your fish on, but finding a place to fish is not as tough as you might think. The gear and bait you chose depends on several factors—what type of fishing you’ll be doing (freshwater or salt water), what type of fish you might catch, where you’ll be fishing and under what circumstances (for example, fishing from a kayak on a lake may require different gear from fishing from a peer at a marina).

These family friendly fishing events will be popping up at bodies of water across the nation this summer in order to help families discover the fun in fishing without having to plan a time consuming, expensive getaway. It’s a great way to introduce young people to fishing, encourage them to try more outdoor activities, and inspire a love of nature and conservation that has been lost in younger generations who haven’t had the opportunity to learn to cherish the beauty of a day on the water. It’s a great way to get my dudes to spend a little time in nature, disconnected from friends and Fortnite, doing something that they love with the people they love being with the most. And, while I don’t think they are about to become the next great anglers, I love that they have learned so many things about wildlife, waterways, survival, and our ecosystem just by spending time outside with a line in the water.
