Summer is coming! Do you have plans for all the fun your family will have? Wide open schedules can make summer feel like you’ve got all the time in the world to have fun as a family. But, if you aren’t careful, those long summer days will slip away and you’ll realize that you haven’t done nearly as much as you wanted to do! Creating a list of family summer bucket list ideas can help you prioritize fun with your people this summer.
The first thing that my family does each summer when school is over is to make a Summer Bucket List. It’s our favorite way to put the focus on fun and being together. Not everything on our lists gets marked off, and not every activity goes as planned (I’m looking at you 5 gallon cooler of homemade root beer my kids dumped in our kitchen a couple of years ago). But, we love the bucket list. Try it! I think your family will love it too.
100+ ideas for your family summer bucket list:
1. Make s’mores
2. Plant a garden
3. Go for a bike ride
4. Sleep outside
