The SUMMER Link party & {20+ Activities for Kids!}



(a few pictures of our summer last year!) Kaylee's favorite activity, our Alaska trip, and Aaron with the crazy carrot he pulled up from the garden!

The children are almost out of school and I'm always on the hunt for fun things to do over summer vacation! We have several favorite places to hang out in the summertime in Columbus and will be going to those places frequently, but sometimes it's fun to enjoy the beautiful weather and family time at home! Here are 20 projects that we've done over the past couple of years that were successful. If you have any of your own to add, link up! The link party will be open throught August :)
 
 

And one more. Let's make it 21 projects. Need something to entertain the kiddos for an upcoming road trip this summer? My boys LOVE these!

Hope your summer is full of sun, family, vacations, and fun!
Now Let's see Your Ideas! Any kid's activity {indoor or outdoor}. I can't wait to check them out!

  4. Some great ideas here, I will have to save some of them for when it is summer in Australia, too cold to do some of them now, particularly those involving ice and water- but my kids probably wouldn't mind!

  16. This is such a wonderful blog. My kids usually go to acting camps in new jersey for a fair portion of the summer, and they have a blast! They really love it, but I need ideas for when they get back! This is the PERFECT place for that. So thank you so much for sharing all these wonderful ideas.
