Summer Fun List: At Home
It doesn’t matter if you decide to do it indoors or out, a movie marathon always screams summer fun. Make sure that you have tons of popcorn and plenty of good snacks to help set the mood and spend all day watching your favorites. If you can’t figure out what you want to watch, check out my list of the best movies to watch on summer break. Of course, the Goonies is on the list!
If you can’t get out to a national park this year to go camping, you can have just as much fun camping in your own backyard! Get out all of your gear and don’t forget the marshmallows. And while you’re at it, get the whole family involved. Chances are you’ll have just as much fun as you would have in the wilderness. Maybe even more, since, you know, a bathroom is close by.

Summer isn’t complete, for me anyway, without an afternoon spent tie-dyeing!

Before the summer even starts, have each of your kids complete a Summer Bucket List full of the things that they would absolutely kill to do over the break from school. It could include anything and everything (though, it might be a good idea to give them some guidelines?) that they want to do. Here’s a list of things you could put on your list!
