Summer Bucket List Ideas

June 21, 2020 Leave a Comment

This summer is going to be a strange one. For kids, especially. With a lot of things closed or opening back up slowly, the summer season will be different from years past. Typically we create a summer bucket list ideas as a family at the end of the school year. Since we gave up on the “distance learning” a long time ago we have been coming up with ideas on how to make this summer fun despite the restrictions that may be in place. Items that we typically include in our summer bucket list ideas are amusement parks, parades, fairs and baseball games. Since those have either been cancelled or postponed, we had to become more creative this summer.

Summer Bucket List Ideas

Beach Trip

Something that we will do often this summer especially since we live near the coast. If you don’t live near the coast and are able to make the trip it is so worth it. The kids love spending time at the beach and are completely worn out afterwards.

Drive In Movies

Our community does monthly movie in the park nights during the summer. This year they got creative and moved it to a large parking lot so families could social distance. There are also several drive in movie theaters in my state so this is one thing that we will be checking off this year.

Camping

Maybe we will settle for backyard camping because I am not much of a camper.

Strawberry Picking

This is something that we do yearly and I absolutely love doing. The kids are happy and they eat more then we take home usually. Coming up with ideas on what to make with the strawberries is the biggest task.

Scavenger Hunts

Make scavenger hunts for different places like while out hiking, or at the beach or even while on a road trip.

Hiking

We love to hike as a family and even Avery talks about going on a hike. Find some fun, kid-friendly ones in your area to take on this summer.

Learn Something New

Learn something new this summer whether it be about science, math or mythical beings. Encourage your children to learn about something that they are interested in this summer. Or even learn a new craft or skill.

Stargaze

Pick a clear night and lay out in the backyard looking at the stars. Or if you can head to an open field or the beach to do it. Research which constellations are where and try to find them in the night sky.

Make Tie-dye shirts

The kids always love doing this, mom’s not so much because it can get messy. Find a tie-dye kit on Amazon HERE or even at . You can also pick up simple white shirts HERE and HERE.

Make Popsicles

You can make easy fruit popsicles for those hot summer days. Find easy recipes HERE and HERE.

Fireworks

This may be tricky because many places are canceling their festivals and celebrations for the 4th of July. Hopefully you can catch some fireworks at some point this summer.

Here are just a few ideas to add to your summer bucket list for the entire family. What do you have planned for this summer with your family? Also download my free printable Summer Bucket List Checklist to keep track of your own activities this summer!

Supporting my postpartum body with @beli.baby Pren Supporting my postpartum body with @beli.baby Prenatal vitamins. 
Not only are the essential prior to conception and during pregnancy; they are essential to keep the body healthy after pregnancy as well. 
I have openly shared my previous miscarriages before finally getting pregnant with Chloe. This is why I decided to check out the Beli Women Prenatal vitamins to help with my own personal fertility and boost my chances of a having a successful pregnancy. The Beli Women Prenatal vitamins are formulated with powerful ingredients that can boost fertility and conception as well as  improve egg quality. As an older mom, this was especially important to me. During pregnancy, the Beli Women Prenatal can protect baby’s brain and spine, help reduce nausea, and then support postpartum recovery and breastfeeding.
And as a busy mom having the ability to order and have them delivered to your door monthly makes it that much easier for me to remember to take them.

A little day off morning routine that for once was A little day off morning routine that for once was not pure craziness. 
Things that help me get out the door in the morning on time is getting up before the kids, having clothes picked out the night before and making sure their bags are packed for daycare and school. 
Mornings before work are a completely different ballgame.
