It’s that time of year when the dead of winter has FINALLY lifted and spring is in the air. The kids can go outside and play a bit more and crafting is at its finest. I get it, having ideas from other people is MUCH easier than coming up with something on your own. So many times I am glued to Pinterest trying to fill time slots throughout the day.

Our family turns the TV off and we PLAY. We play outside, inside, we have play dates, we explore local parks, etc. In fact, I have had NO PROBLEM keeping my littles busy over Summer break. I want to share the many ideas that you too can implement into your summer routine.
