School is coming to an end, which means summer is nearly here. Summer brings warm weather and more free time to do activities with your friends and family.
There are so many things to do, you can go to the movie theatre with your friends and watch, you guessed it, a movie. Movies are a great activity because even if the movie you’re seeing isn’t the greatest, you can still have a fun night out with your friends.
Another popular activity, especially locally, is any water activities. There are so many to choose from. Swimming and boating is usually what comes to people’s minds first. Swimming is a great way to cool off during the long and hot summer days and boating can be quiet and peaceful or party-like. Both of which are very fun.
There are many more water activities to choose from, jet skiing, tubing, kayaking/canoeing or fishing. These can be more solo compared to the others but they are also great options to do with the family.
Many people go to summer camps during this time. Summer camps are great for making new friends and memories. Or, brings some friends along. Not all summer camps are sleepaways, many people don’t like being away from home. There are summer camps for everyone, there are the classic camps with canoeing, hiking and smores. And there are camps for specific kings such as coding, art or cooking camps.
There are many great crafts to try out, tye dying and rock painting are perfect for summer and they are good pastimes.
Summer is the best time of year to be outside, planting flowers by your house is fun and rewarding, watching them grow over time is a good experience.
Camping isn’t for everybody but being in the great outdoors with the people you love and sitting by the campfire is a great thing to do. Cooking with the fire and hearing all the birds is a very peaceful way to spend one or two days.
Road Trips can be the perfect opportunity to make new memories with your friends. Go drive to a state you have never been to before, or to a friend who moved away. Maybe go to the beach or a lake. The possibilities are endless.
Summers are known for BBQs and lemonade stands, so host a BBQ party or make lemonade from scratch just to see how it turns out. There are many fairs and markets where there are local businesses serving food and they are never a disappointment.
Picnics are a super nice and peaceful way to spend the day, just be sure to choose the perfect spot, whether that’s in a field, park or on a beach it’s up to you.
These are only a few of the many opportunities summer brings and make sure to make the most out of it.
