Things to do this summer

[happymomof4]

Run under a sprinkler
Sleep outdoors
Have a sunrise picnic in the garden
Take a trip to a local playground
Ride a bike or take a walk
Eat most of your meals outdoors
Eat a campfire treat—indoors. To make, simply layer graham crackers on a pizza pan or baking sheet, top with layers of chocolate chips and mini marshmallows and pop under the broiler for a minute or two until the marshmallows are toasted.
Stay out late for stargazing
Sing campfire songs and tell ghost stories
Get a new flag and let it wave


If you have more ideas I would love to hear them. Even thou my girls are 17 and 18. We have done most of these this summer. It really brings back old memories when I had all 4 of my kids home.
