Summer is near and that means that school will be out soon. Parents
can find a bunch of affordable summer fun ideas for kids right here from Forbes Living.
When school ends, children have more time on their hands to
get into mischief and mayhem. Why not keep them busy and active? Below are some
ideas found on the web and from the writer’s childhood.
Summer day camps are run by school systems, non-profit
organizations and specialty groups. Ask the child what they’re interested in
and find a program which fits their likes. Many cities offer affordable options
for the public.
City and county libraries offer movie afternoons, reading
groups and special guests. Introduce a child to the library, get them their own
library card and they are on their way to endless adventures which cost nothing
more than the price of the card.
Public swimming pools usually offer family passes which are
discounted and are good all summer long. Buy one for the family.
Hit the beach, take the kids out for a nature hike in the
area and enjoy a picnic afterwards.
There are also cool things to do at home like make some arts
and crafts, play in water sprinklers, and the one thing moms love the most –
quiet hour. Send kids to their rooms for one hour of peace and quiet to read or
nap. Forbes Living TV suggests readers start today to find something
entertaining and active for children of all ages to do this summer.
