Summer Activities for the Family

Summer is a magical time and we are right in the thick of it! Vacations, warm weather, relaxed attitudes, and a whole lot of sunshine will put a smile on just about anybody. You’ve probably already shopped for shorts, sandals, and beach chairs and been indulging in pool parties, cook-outs, and ice-cold treats; but if you haven’t started planning your summer fun, then get going! It’s time to dive right in with some summer-inspired bucket list items! SPLASH!

Road Trip

Have a free weekend? Spontaneity is the spice of life! Grab the family, pack up the car & set out on an adventure. It’s not necessarily the destination that matters but the memories you make along the way! Oh…and the music. Every good road trip needs an awesome soundtrack!

Concerts and Music Festivals

Summer concerts and music festivals are some of the best all year! Check out what’s scheduled around you and mark your calendar. More of a movie buff? Summer movies in the park are a great way to enjoy your favorites under the stars.

Slow Down

Whether you hit that snooze alarm and catch a few extra Zzzzz’s or you snag a catnap in the hammock…A lazy summer weekend may be just what the doctor ordered to catch up on a little stress relief. Relax and enjoy!

Make a Time Capsule

Decorate a tightly sealed jar or container, including the date and the date you want it opened. Allow every member of your family to choose an item and a brief description of why that item is special. For an extra-special addition, have every person tell a little about themselves and what’s going on in their lives right now. Add pictures!

Go Camping

Trade the daily city/suburb life for a few days getting back to nature. You’ll get some quality time with the family and learn to unplug. Ok, even if you loathe the great outdoors you’ll get some great Instagram photos & a whole lot of material for your social media. And maybe, just maybe, you’ll learn to perfect the S’more! If you just can’t hack it, try a mini-camp out in the backyard!

Watch the Sunrise

Whether you get to enjoy the sunrise on the beach like we do in beautiful San Diego or you prefer mountain life better. Take your family to enjoy the beautiful sunrise and soak in all the great moments you are having with eachother.

BBQ, Fireworks, and Parades - Oh My!

The Fourth of July isn’t the only day that you have to experience fun with BBQs, fireworks, parades, popsicles, and watermelon. It is summer after all no explanation is needed!
