Although the official start of summer was just one week ago, the summer season seems to be flying by already! I order to make the most of it, I wanted to create a bucket list for our family to maximize the glorious, long days of summer, all the of sunshine, and the fun activities/events that are going on in and around our community. Being intentional and purposeful with our time is something that I have been convicted of this past year! Our babies are growing up fast and I want to really enjoy this fun and unique season we are in.
So if you find yourself feeling the same, and wanting to make the most of your summer…I thought I would share a family friendly bucket list filled with easy, and enjoyable ideas that you can add to your calendar this summer.
- Go out for ice cream
- Go on an adventure somewhere new
- Go to the zoo
- Go to the pool- a lot!
- Go to a splash pad
- Watch fireworks
- Play with water balloons
- Go see a movie
- Laying the backyard and watch the stars
- Go on a nature walk
- Have a picnic at the park
- Visit a museum
- Make playdough
- Invite friends over for a summer BBQ
- Build a backyard fort
- Backyard Bonfire/make s’mores
- Take a road trip somewhere new
- Go to a baseball game
- Make homemade popsicles

I hope this list inspires you to get planning and thinking about how you want to spend your summer with your family. I love the quote from cultivate what matters, “how you spend your time is how you spend your life”. So I encourage you to make a list of all the things you want to do/experience/accomplish this summer and make them happen!
Thanks for stopping by my sweet friends.
Blessings, Sarah
