We are finally out of school for the summer and we could not be more excited. Hayden will spend the majority of the week at a day camp because I’m living that #workingmom life. Despite this we have created our own summer bucket list of all the things that we want to do this summer.
The Ultimate Summer Bucket List
1. Beach (Always at the top of Hayden’s List)

6. Decorate driveway with chalk
7. Bubbles
8. Go on a hike

10. Amusement park
11. Camping (not a fan so check out an alternative HERE)
12. Paddle Boarding
13. Spend a day on a boat
14. Watch fireworks

I love this list. My boys are all teenagers now, but they have some of the same activities on their lists that you do! (Who doesn’t love sparklers?)
Krysten Quiles says
Yay, this is such a great bucket list! I can’t believe summer’s already 1/3 over, I need to get moving!
Sue-Tanya Mchorgh says
This is a really good list. I see a lot of things I want to do this summer.
Candice says
Bubbles and sparklers are always favourites of ours 🙂
Bubbles, pools, splash pads, fireworks!! All so much fun for kids and adults too lol
Lavern Moore says
This is a great list of things to do with kids. I’ve done many of these things with mine when they were young.
This is a great bucket list. I am slacking bad this year and haven’t made our list yet.
Njkinny says
My 3 year old agrees with your list. He is a huge fan of the beach, the pool and definitely anything that promises a fun outing with preferably ice cream. 😆😊
Oluwatobiloba Oluborode says
A great bucket list. That a whole lot of fun filled activities.
This would have been such a fun bucket list to do with my daughter when she was younger. In fact, I think she would still love to do some of these like the sandcastle.
I and my family are all excited when it comes to the summer season. Before that we already planned all the things that we would love to do.
Bubbles are huge in our house. Three kids from 1yo-7yo and they all love them. It’s nice to have something they all enjoy doing together.
Jackline A says
Great bucket list for you and your kids. I hope you guys get to cross off a bunch of things.
Miriam Wong says
I love the paddle boarding and zoo idea! Such a fun list, thanks for sharing!
Bindu Thomas says
That is really a fun list. Grown-ups could do some of them too, just for some fun 😉
Sarah says
So many great things on this list! We’ve done many of these already but are definitely inspired by some too. Hope you’re having a great summer!
Hiking would be cool! Once I have them in the future, I definitely take them on one. #excited.
Krysten Quiles says
I’ve been able to do quite a few of these with my nephew, its been pretty awesome. Hopefully you can do more of these before the summer is over!
Crystal says
I remember how much I used to love the pool as a kid! Now I feel like it takes a pool bar to get me to go hahaha
These are definitely great lists of things to do with kids and yes, going to the beach are my kids top of the lists followed by visiting amusement parks, playing of bubbles and water balloon fighting.
I have always wanted to do a movie in the park. I wondered if there were any more of those anymore. I would love to find out where they have them around the U.S. (Florida specifically).
These are such great ideas to do with kids over the summer! There are so many amazing memories to be made over these months.
