Kids will be starting summer soon (some already have). Although my kids are not in school yet, I know how hard it can be to keep the kiddos entertained during the summer months. Sometimes it seems so much easier to just set them in front of a TV and play Dora reruns all day, (and many days I am tempted to) but I know that there are so many more benefits to creative, outdoor play.
- They burn energy which leads to better sleep (which leads to mommy sleeping better as well)
- They learn so much more
- I don’t have to hear “I’m bored” 50 times a day
- And many, many more.
Here are a couple ideas I am planning on using this summer.

Make a shell wind chime
Give them a shady place to play
(definitely a must in this AZ heat)

I think you mean the kids will say "I'm bored" not "I'm board" 😉
I reminds me I used to tell my mother "I'm boring"
Thanks! It's fixed!
