School is out and summer is here! The good news: lots of free days for the kiddos to play. The bad news: lots of free days for the kiddos to get bored. Matter of Cents and I want to help you avoid the glazed-over eyes and the “I’m bored” whine with these fun activities for kids from Pinterest.
This checklist of 100 Things To Do this summer should be a good start!

Once you go through those, here’s another 100 Things To Do this summer!

Try a weekly Family Appreciation Night this summer. Have it in the backyard as a picnic or along with a camp-out for an extra-special event.

Have the kiddos save Batman and Robin (or any little character!) from a frozen prison by shooting the ice blocks with a water gun.

Water balloon pinatas! What a fun way to cool off during those hot summer days. You could add some glitter if you have a sparkly princess at home, or dress the kids in clothes you don’t care about and fill the balloons with colored water and let them spray themselves in a rainbow.

What are your favorite summer activities for the kids?
