    ReplyDelete
  22. I had lots of picnic lunches when my kiddos were young. I made lunch and we trekked all the way outside to the beautiful tree in our front yard and spread out a blanket. It was special for the kids because it was outside. So simple, but they remember it all. We went to the park lots and lots. I chased them up and down the slides. We went to the pool lots and lots. We didn't have much money. The car was a disgrace but it went far enough to get us to the cheap places. I would gladly trade my nice car now to go back in time to the junker car of the past to have my grown up adult children be young again!

    Later, there were hikes and real picnics and having a friend come along. One friend at a time so that we had enough seat belts. As they aged, we got a better car. We could go farther and could go to interesting museums and to the zoo.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I always enjoyed the beach or lakes with my kids during the summer. I'd fix pinic lunches and off we'd go. When they were younger it was sprinklers, and water balloon fights in our yard, but I'd still fix a lunch and we would spread out a quilt and picnic at home 😉

  25. A schedule!
    Mundane Monday (errands, groceries, etc)
    Play/Park Tuesday (a new to us playground or park)
    Wet Wednesday (swimming at a pool/rec centre, usually one new to us)
    Thoughtful Thursday (library day!)
    Fabulous Friday (somewhere fun and exciting [and expensive], movie, museum, mini golf etc)

    Mornings are spent at the beach or playing with friends. Yet with all this fabulous planning and only having two kids, summer is the longest and most hated ten weeks of my life, every year.

  26. I think Nicole above has it all covered!

    ReplyDelete

  169. My children are adults (no grandchildren). Anyways, I used to do lots of science stuff with them in the summer - going to the beach looking and then looking up, making volcanoes with paper mache then putting in baking soda/vinegar. Many other things. Must have been somewhat influential as my daughter is a newly minted PhD in Ocean Chemistry. It's also fun to just go out and observe or to do sun printing on fabric or to make tie dye tshirts. Lots of fabric options!
