Summer is a favorite time for me, not because of the weather, but because I get extra time with my nieces! Together, with my daughter included, we brainstorm and plan activities we want to do. I ask them to each pick their top 5 places they'd like to go, and then we plan our calendar around where we can go and when. We plan these activities around summer camps, vacations, and family outings.
Then, we print out monthly calendars and fill in the days.
Here are some articles I've written that will help you find some of the same fun as us!
- Summer at the Library! Events, activities and the summer reading challenge are shared in this article.
- Playgrounds - A family favorite is to have a picnic and play at a local playground!
- Local Science Museums - We love the Orlando Science Center - learn some great info on other local museums as well.
- U-Pick Farms - some are open and some have corn new corn festivals! Check out the local ones I've listed here.
- National Parks in FL - looking for a day or weekend trip to a National Park here in FL. Check out this list.
- Camping Sites - here are some camping sites and Springs parks in our area - be aware that they get busy quickly!
Have fun! And remember, sometimes we plan game nights and play at home days, which are just as exciting.
