100 Summer Ideas - Part Three: Family Time

The next group of ideas includes good ones for your family to do together as a whole group.
Some of these ideas include so-called "work" but the achievement at the end of the day is well-worth the effort!

1. Play a board game.
2. Make dinner with a theme - use another country or period in history.
3. Make your own movie.
4. Put on your own play or puppet show.
5. Celebrate Christmas in July. Make simple decorations such as paper chains and snowflakes.
6. Can fruit.
7. Make jam.
8. Clean out the messiest room in the house. Better yet, do one a week and your house should sparkle by fall!
9. Create a rainy-day obstacle course.
10. Host a neighbourhood BBQ or block party.
11. Hold your own karaoke contest.
12. Play charades.

This spring Michael's mom came to visit and see our new place, and spent her time helping him unpack and organize the garage, which was definitely the messiest room. Thanks Mom!
