Summer Break

Our summer break starts in just a couple of days. It's hard to believe our 6 year old is finishing up Kindergarten! In preparation for the 66 days of vacation coming up, I've been trying to plan some activities for us to do. Here are some of the fun things I'm looking forward to trying out with the kids this summer:

Fun games to play outside:

1. Tin Can Telephone as posted by Childhood 101.

2. Outdoor Color Match by FrugalFamilyFun Blog.

3. Taking our sidewalk chalk playing to another level with Story Stones again from FrugalFamilyFun Blog.

4. Some pretend camping with this A-Frame Tent from My Cakies.

5. And finally just some flitting about with these cute Dress Up Wings by Eri via Prudent Baby.

I also came across good ideas in 15 Fun & Frugal things to do with your family by Keeper of the Home via Simple Mom.

And some fun things to do indoors:

1. Suminagashi as posted by FrugalFamilyFun Blog.

2. Fabric Scrap Paper Dolls by This Mama Makes Stuff.

3. Monster Boxes as posted by No Time for Flashcards.

4. Maybe a few science experiments like these from Momtastic.

Add in some swimming lessons, trips to the beach, and our local library's summer reading program... and I think we'll be keeping busy!
