As summer is starting to wind down…I can’t even believe I am typing that seeing that I feel like summer JUST started…it is fun to reflect on what you have been able to do and what you would like to do before the start of school. I know for us, we like parks, swimming, the zoo and crafting.
It is mid-summer and there are endless things to do…but somehow I hear “I’m bored…” come from my kids’ mouths. Seriously??? We just finished with what seemed like an endless winter and now that we are free to head on outside without wrapping ourselves up, we find it difficult to find things to do. Well…seek no more…I have the endless list of (6 NO FAIL) “I’m bored” activities for all ages!
SUMMER HAS ARRIVED!!! As much as I LOVE being outdoors in the warmer months, I also LOVE me some board games on those rainy or WAY TOO HOT days! The month of Summer is usually synonymous with three things – the scorching heat, mouth-watering mangoes and happy children running around the house enjoying their much-needed summer vacations.
Alright my mommas out there who have been dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic (Ahem…that is ALL of us)…Are you going stir crazy like myself? We have literally done every art activity I can fathom.
Now that our state has lifted some of the restrictions from the COVID-19 quarantine, I feel like we are able to get back out there and reintroduce life once again to our kids. Don’t get me wrong, we aren’t back in full swing by any means, but we are able to push past some of the barriers that have held us back since COVID-19 struck. Here are some things my family has done or is planning on doing this 2020 summer season.
Summer is in full swing in our household but we are still not enjoying all we could be due to the Coronavirus quarantine. The zoo, museum, parks, and pools all have restrictions (and most aren’t even open yet) which makes it impossible to enjoy as it is intended.
As the summer months start to wind down and summer is coming to a close, the bucket list of ideas is starting to dwindle and the pressure of the start of school is setting in. I get it. I try to squeeze anything out of every second of the day…knowing it will soon come to an end. As the time draws near for school shopping and getting back into a routine, here are a few more ideas to entertain the kids these last few weeks.
