Do you know your ABC’s?

by Summer Minor

I found a great post over at For Such a Time as Now called The ABC’s of Summer School. In her post Karen lists the ABC’s of what she plans to do this summer with her kids. I thought it was such a great post I had to steal it! So here is my list of summer fun, ABC style.

Act our age (in a fun way)
Blowing bubbles in the yard
Car trips
Dinorsaur adventures
Eat something cold every hot day
Find new things to learn about
Go swimming
Hunt for faeries
Ice cream!
Jump on our friend’s trampoline
Kid’s museums are fun to visit
Light firecrackers in the backyard
Make handmade books
Name every day of the week something silly
Organize some fun with our friends
Play in the mud
Quietly relax
Read, read, read
Sewing
Treat the kids to homemade treats
Underground exploring in caves
Volunteer our time
Watch fireflies
X-ercise
Yo-yo, or at least learn to
Zoo time!
