Checklist of activities to do :)

Backyard fun :)

Pitch a tent in the backyard and roast hot dogs and marshmallows if you have a fire pit (or on the grill.)

It's the perfect time of year for this! My daughter loves to roast marshmallows.

Backyard Fun

Create a water park in the backyard. Turn on the sprinkler, fill the baby pool, get out the Slip 'N Slide and let the kids have fun cooling off on a hot day.


Take a bubble bath outside. If the kids are tiring of the inflatable pool, make it fun again by filling it with bubbles -- and tossing small toys in for them to find under all the foam

Have a scavenger hunt. Hide items in your house or yard, then give the kids a list of the items and see who can find them the fastest.
