1. Nature Scavenger Hunt

Getting your kids outside and away from screens is always a good idea. To help you get your children engaged with nature, consider setting up a scavenger hunt. It’s a fun way to help them explore and connect with the natural world around them.

2. Recycled Crafts

For those rainy summer days or times when it’s too hot to be outside, consider engaging in some recycled crafts with your kids. One fun and creative idea is to make a Recycled Bottle Fairy House.

Recycled Bottle Fairy House

Recycled Bottle Fairy House

What you’ll need:

  • Plastic bottles (two bottles per fairy house)
  • Multi-surface craft paint
  • Craft knife and/or scissors
  • Natural decorations (leaves, moss, pinecones, flowers, rocks)

First, cut off the top of a water bottle to create the top of the fairy house. Then, cut an oval hole in the side of another bottle to serve as the fairy’s entrance. Paint the bottles and decorate the fairy house with natural materials or items from your recycling bin.

For more recycled craft ideas, check out Pinterest for inspiration.

3. Healthy Summer Snacks

Summer is a great time to enjoy fresh, healthy snacks with your kids. Encourage them to pick out or grow their own fruits and vegetables to promote healthy eating habits. Consider making simple snacks like Fresh Fruit on a Stick or 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Banana Cookies.

Fresh Fruit on a Stick

One of the easiest and most fun summer snacks is to cut up watermelon and put them on wooden popsicle sticks.

4. National Park

Take advantage of the many national parks across the United States for some outdoor family fun. Whether it’s a national park, historic trail, or preserve, there are plenty of options for exploration and adventure.

If you have a fourth-grader, make use of the Every Kid Outdoors program, which provides free entry to participating national parks for fourth-graders and their families. Visit the Every Kid Outdoors website for more information and to print out your pass.

5. Unstructured Time

Allow your kids to have some unstructured, screen-free time to foster creativity and independence. Encouraging free play and exploration can be beneficial for their development and overall well-being.
