Summer is in the air and kids everywhere are already dreaming about the long care-free days that will soon be upon them.
But as we all know, those carefree days can turn into long boring days pretty quickly.
So I made a couple of free summer activities bucket list printables you can download for kids.
Download and print the blank list so kids can brainstorm their own ideas, or print out the list that already has activities printed on it. Or just get both!
My boys helped me brainstorm more ideas that would help keep kids busy this summer. We came up with a pretty cool list of 50 free activities for kids to do around the house this summer, so be sure and check it out below.
