What are your plans this summer? With the kids out of school, I am always trying to think of ideas to keep us all having fun! This year, I decided to create a Summer Bucket List so we have goals to complete in a very fun way.
I like creating these lists seasonally, I had so much fun creating and completing our Ultimate Christmas Bucket List. And since I enjoyed it so much, I thought I would share a new one for summer with all of you! Here are some ideas to add to your Summer Bucket List plus either grab the pre-made bucket list or the blank free printable version to add your own ideas! This list also includes helpful links to find recipes and more for easy reference. You can also create your own calendar or planner with a calendar making software. So, you don't forget about scheduled activities from your bucket list.
This list is about FUN! So don't feel obligated and end up stressing yourself out over this. I don't consider myself a "Perfect Pinterest-worthy/Instagram-worthy Mom". I just like to create memories with my children. This list is perfect to add stuff you already had planned or on days where you are wondering what to do, then you don't need to search for ideas. In addition to that, you can also enhance your bucket list by adding long-awaited Christmas Gifts for Toddlers that you have always intended to give. Please share any of your fun summer activities in the comments below!
