Outside play and exercise should be done early in the morning while it is still cool outside, also late evening before the sun sets, when the temps. drop.
I do not have central air, I only use the AC in the room I am in, just before I go to bed I will turn on the bedroom AC.
When I go out I leave the living room AC on for my boy, my kitchen/ living room is one big open area my 15000 BTU cools the rooms very nicely and I do keep just my bedroom door open,and close off all other rooms. If it gets to cool for him he will go into the bedroom.
In the summer I never leave the AC off if I have to leave the house, it would be much to hot for my boy.
