Celebrate National Ice Cream Month and Find Sweet Freedom This Summer

Summertime – for kids, it’s the definition of freedom. School is out, and they can shove classes and homework to the back of their minds, focusing on lazy days with friends, relaxing and enjoying the sunshine.

Sounds nice, right? For moms, we know it often can be a different story! However, it’s important to set aside some “me time.” You can make it happen! Others have found wonderful ways to set aside time for themselves. When the kids are in the care of another adult or playing with friends, don’t immediately pull out a vacuum cleaner or head to the store. Take these suggestions from our Twitter and Facebook communities and give yourself a quick break!

As far as we’re concerned, in the hot summer months, we at The Motherhood like to treat ourselves to a bowl of tasty ice cream when we indulge in a little “me time” – especially during July, which is National Ice Cream Month!

A few of our new favorites, thanks to our partnership with Blue Bunny: Sweet Freedom Ice Cream Banana Split, a tasty combination of banana, strawberry, chocolate, nuts, pineapple and cherry; Sweet Freedom Snack Size Vanilla Ice Cream Cones, which are a perfect size for answering that ice cream craving when you want just a taste; and Sweet Freedom Ice Cream Bar Krunch Lites, combining that yummy chocolate-coated crunch with creamy vanilla ice cream.

Best of all, the Sweet Freedom line has no added sugar – truly giving you the sweet freedom of indulging in a beloved tasty treat this summer.

How do you find “me time” during the summer? Which Sweet Freedom ice cream treat would you enjoy during a moment for yourself?
