Bucket List with Kids for the Summer
Great ideas for summer days just pop up sometimes, but “obviously” not when you need them the most 😅
A few years ago I decided to note down when something important, or interesting comes to my mind… well, I had a teacher in primary school always telling “those lacking good memory should have a notebook at least”, apparently she already knew something about being a Mom trying to organize everything by herself… 😀
Bucket lists are great, making a bit more challenging, fun, and organized those activities that you would do anyway together with your Little One – if they come into your mind in due time 😅
What can also be good options if you wish to have regular new ideas are kids’ subscription boxes! It is such a different feeling to wait for the new surprises to arrive than buying all the staff directly!
But in any way, I decided to prepare a short “bucket list” for those days when we could use some hints 😊
- Sleep in a tent
- Go for a night excursion with a torch
- Walk barefoot on grass
- Build a sand-castle
- Make lemonade
- Watch sunrise and sunset
- Help a friend with tasks around the house
- Eat corn on the cob
- Play badminton
- Read a book lying on the grass
- Paint rocks
- Listen to music in the open air
- Have breakfast on your balcony or terrace
- Dance in the rain
- Prepare home-made ice cream
- Watch meteor-shower
- Batik a T-shirt
- Organize a BBQ
- Make a photo of a rainbow
- Play jump rope with friends
- Eat watermelon
- Bake cookies and give some to the neighbors too
- Visit an interesting sight nearby (even more fun by a scooter!)
- Visit a long-lost relative or friend
- Go on a bike trip
If you are planning a shorter or longer trip during vacation, do not forget to think in advance, and prepare with some travel time activities too! Or even teach your kids to pack for themselves 😉 They are really smart, and it is such a big win for everyone!
Traveling abroad with a baby can be challenging, but totally worth the hustle, just follow these guidelines and enjoy your vacation!
With some organization, you will surely have a great and more relaxed time together!😊
