Use a dry erase marker on the glass to plan events for each day.)
Here's some ideas for each day:
1. Make Something Monday - crafting projects, bake something, create a gift for someone who has a special event coming, Lego creations, sewing, car tracks, painting, bubble mix, etc!
2. Take a Trip Tuesday - Go to grandma's house, local movie theatre, museum, aquarium, the beach, roller skating, miniature golf, hiking, nature walks, etc.
3. Water Wednesday - swimming pool, lake, beach, water gun fights, balloon fights, water art on the driveway, sprinklers, etc.
4. Thinking Cap Thursday - science projects, reading, local library, museums, planetariums, review things you learned in school the previous school year, go to a class you signed up for, etc.
5. Friend Day Friday - pick a friend to have over to play, plan a park playdate or swim date, serve a friend who needs help or a pick-me-up, write a friend a letter, Face Time or Skype friends you haven't seen in a while, etc.
Utilize websites like your local chamber of commerce. They're experts at knowing what's going on in the area! And don't be afraid to branch out! Pack the kids up and be brave...drive 3 hours to an amazing beach and play! You can do it! As long as you plan ahead and have the necessary help, you'll be glad you went!
Have fun planning for this summer!
Okay..I love this idea!! I will definitely be printing it!
