Fun Summer Activities for Kids printable checklist and summer planner

Summer’s here and that means warm weather, sun, and a lot of time to enjoy the great outdoors! Whether you love taking on adventurous activities, relaxing by the water, or just want to find something for your kids to do during those long summer days, we’ve got some ideas for you!

While it isn’t as expensive as traveling, summer staycations can become quickly expensive. If you are looking for some low-cost summer activities for the kids, it’s important to plan. Spending just an hour at the beginning of summer can change the entire outcome. A summer planner can not only give the kids something to look forward to, it can keep your expenses in check and help budget for more costly kids’ activities.

How can I make summer fun at home?

To create summer fun at home, have a list of summer activities you and the kids will look forward to. Staying home doesn’t have to be boring but staying organized will allows you to enjoy the lazier days and hope for the more exciting days that are planned. Our free printable summer calendar is an excellent tool for seeing what’s ahead.

If you need ideas for how to make summer fun while staying home, involve the kids. After all what are fun summer activities for kids if the kids are not the ones involved in the planner. Sit down at the end of the school year.  A family dinner is a perfect time to brainstorm. You can use this free printable summer checklist. Use the ideas listed or review them as a spring board for some of your own family bucket list ideas.

Are your kids a fan of the great outdoors? If so, there are plenty of great activities that you can take on to keep yourself busy and entertained during the long summer months. Hiking, camping, kayaking and other awesome outdoor adventures await!

Is staying inside the confided space of walls, doors and air condition more your jam? If so, plan some unique summer activities for at home. Hosting a bake off, plan a day where you make different cuisines, or work through a family game night bucket list.

The great outdoors provides plenty of distractions, but if you are making something epic, you will want to have the best camping activities and games for your campers.

What do you do at camping?

While the fresh air and a new atmosphere is quite distracting, it’s important to have a list of things to do when camping. From campfire hot dogs to campfire cinnamon rolls, meals can be quite fun but what do you do in between eating.  A few activities for camping include flashlight tag, making campfire s’mores, shadow puppets, nature crafts, and DIY constellation viewers.

Camping food makes us all happy but in between those bites, add hikes, crafts, and of course games. We also have a list of 13 camping games that you print out and take with you to play while spending time in nature! Whether you are camping with kids or adults, there are lots of options for group game night.

These boredom buster games will keep everyone entertained for hours on end-and you won’t even need Wi-Fi!

Games to play while camping

The most common camping games are often DIY backyard games. From cornhole to beanbag toss, frisbee and more, there are plenty of ways to take outdoor games to the campsite.

Fun Camping Games printable with Instructions and Supply List

Face the Cookie

In this fun minute to win it game, each person is given a cookie with the goal of getting it from their forehead to their mouth without dropping it. This game is perfect for those that like time limits.

Spoons

This traditional game is all about speed. You need a deck of cards and a fun concoction.  Players quickly pick up and pass cards in an attempt to get 4 of a kind. When someone gets four of a kind, they grab a spoon. Everyone grabs a spoon leaving someone without, and earning them a letter. The last person to spell out SPOONS wins!

Fire Tender

Sitting in a circle, teams try to sneak a stick or other fire starting item from in front of the blindfolded “fire tender” without being caught. The team with the most sticks at the end of the game is the winner.

Pass the Water

This water minute to win it game is perfect for a hot day, the goal is to have the most water in your bucket before the game ends. But be careful, keeping the water in the cup (and staying dry) is not as easy as it sounds!

Scavenger Hunt

Nothing is more exciting than a scavenger hunt in the dark! Work together to collect everything on your list before the other teams using your flashlight.

You can also check out our Camping Treasure Hunt with Scavenger Hunt Riddles.

Sardines

You might remember this game from summer camp! Play this backwards version of hide-n-seek by looking for the person hiding. Last one to find the hidden “sardine” becomes the sardine. Just try not to laugh and give your hiding spot away!

Charades

Like the traditional game, teams will take turns acting out camping terms on the cards to earn a point and win. Bragging rights are on the line, so teammates but not be afraid to shout out your guesses.

Sleeping Bag Races

Ready for a relay race? Hop to the finish line the fastest, using your sleeping bag to win. You can also substitute trash bags if you’re worried about getting your bed dirty. First team to finish declares victory.

Flashlight Tag

Pick a person to be “it” and let the fun begin! Players will try to avoid being “tagged” with the beam of light from the flashlight or risk being out. Last one standing wins!

I’m Going on a Camping Trip

This throwback to the childhood “Going on a Bear Hunt” game is all about memory. the First play lists something they would take camping… even if it is silly like a pineapple. Each player names something that they will take on their camping trip. Then the person after them lists the items from before and adds their item to the list.

Pass the Banana

It’s time to get sneaky with this hilarious game. Sitting in a circle, players have to pass the fruit without the person in the middle of the circle seeing them.

The best thing about many of these new camping game ideas is that they can be played using common items found at a campsite like spoons, a tent, sleeping bag, flashlight, water, cookies and more. Very little items need to be back and the ones that you do need to purchase, are low-cost and can fit in a duffle bag! They will not take up room in your trunk to pack.

72 Fun Family Bonding Activities & Ideas

Family time is important for bonding and creating new memories. Take a look at this list of 72 Family Bonding Activities and Ideas. Download this fun family traditions checklist to begin the family fun today!

Fun Family Bonding Activities checklist

Family time is important for everyone in the family. Planning relationship building activities make for fun memories that you’ll cherish for years. This family bonding activities printable provides year-round ideas of fun things to do together to make great memories together.

Why Family Time?

Whether it’s the bonding time spent with siblings, parents, children or even pets; spending time with family can provide a sense of security and love that cannot be found outside of the people you love the most. In addition, memories are created when something unusual occurs. That means getting out of the same daily routine and adding a new activity to your day!

Fun family activities can overlap with Family Traditions and they can be repeated or you can do them once and never do them again. For example, every Sunday family dinner is breakfast for us. This began as a family activity and quickly grew into a family tradition.

When creating a list of seasonal family activities, consider what your family would enjoy. If you have a larger family (like my family of seven) we have activities on the list that each child/adult would like. Of course, not each activity is appreciated by everyone but we all participate.

Family Bonding Ideas

We all know we should spend more time with our families but sometimes we struggle to come up with activities that don’t end in a shouting match. Making time to build your family bond can often be pushed aside. With that being said, here are some simple family bonding activities that you can do with your family this weekend!

1. Indoor Ice Skating: This fun activity for families on a budget is great for any time of year. Lace up and have fun trying to stay upright or learning how to do new tricks. If you don’t have ice skates, try out skates or even roller blades!

2. Cook Together: Cooking with kids can sometimes be difficult because they always want to play with the food but not eat any of it. Pick a recipe that everyone will enjoy and prep together if possible. Bonus points for trying new foods.

3. DIY Crafts: When was the last time you went to your local craft store? Take advantage of great deals and create something together. Your family will love the memories you create together while coming up with new ideas for future projects.

4. Mini-Golfing: It’s never too late or too early to start playing the game everyone loves. Mini-golf is a great family bonding activity that will leave you with laughs and smiles for years to come.

5. Go For A Hike: It doesn’t matter where you go for your hike as long as it’s somewhere new, exciting and challenging. Pack some snacks, water and good hiking shoes and get out of the house. Bonus: Involve your dog and make it a family adventure!

6. Board Games: Get some old school board games like Monopoly, Pictionary, Life or even Chess and challenge each other to friendly battles of minds. As long as everyone remembers that it’s just a game, you’ll have fun while making memories with a family game night.

Birthdays are fun, why not celebrate the half!? These Half Birthday Party Ideas are perfect for the young and hold – ages 6 months to 100 years plus!

Half Birthday Party Ideas

Half Birthday Party Ideas

It seems like adding a celebration for every day of the year is becoming a think. We have son’s day, cat day, national love a tree day. I might be making some of these up, but official holidays are picking up and a half birthday celebration is too.

When is my half birthday?

You might be asking what’s a half birthday?  Basically a half birthday is a unique and special date to everyone. It can be found by adding six months to your birthday and celebrating the halfway milestone.  Need help finding your half birthday mark? You can use a handy half birthday calculator to help you find your special date. Often this themed party is recognized for young babies when they turn six months, but they are becoming more and more of a thing for young kids and adults too, especially for a summer baby or winter birthday when friends might be traveling and parties can be a challenge.

My youngest kids (the twins) birthday is a few days away from Christmas. This is always a rough time to celebrate. People who have birthdays close to major holidays often speak of feeling a little “cheated” out of gifts.  Having a small June celebration, even if only a small gift, special dinner, and a half birthday cake, would be a fun way to celebrate them when the busy season doesn’t over shadow their birthday. Contrary, if your child has a summer birthday, a half birthday is a way to recognize it when friends are not traveling or perhaps in the classroom.


Half Birthday Ideas

Not that we have established what is a half birthday and reasons to have a half birthday, let’s take a look at these Half Birthday Celebration ideas. Just like a regular  birthday, this new party trend is fun.  Why not celebrate the unbirthday aka the half birthday party them!?

Shower them with cake. It’s important to have some half birthday cake ideas in your back pocket. We love this half cake idea from Beki Cooks Cake Blog. How cute is the back side?

Happy 1/2 birhday! Celebrate a half birthday in the classroom with these half birthday bag toppers and party favor free printables from Over the Big Moon.

hat baby half birthday ideas

Finding an important half birthday outfit might feel important, but don’t forget the accessories like the party hat. Lalalola has some cute baby half birthday ideas and designs for your six month old.

If your not into creating a half birthday cake , how about this sweet dessert. In the theme of half, make half brownies and half cookies plus grab a free half birthday printable from Mother’s Niche. Place the sign in an 8×10 frame or on the front door!

Cut everything in half – the food, the plates, and the napkins like Beki Cooks Cake Blog.

Do small presents on the half hour like Mother’s Niche! It does’t take much – small gifts of candy, gift cards, loved chapstick, etc.

Half the burgers and hot dogs! Maybe add half a pizza! Cute ideas on Let Go Laughing.

Easy Half Party Decorations could be simple like a banner and streamers. Grab this Half Birthday Banner and buy it for every birthday in your home!

Have a special breakfast (the hostess aka you) gets to drink/eat the other half! Idea on a Mother’s Niche.

Make it a surprise party. People might expect a birthday around their birthday, but no one expects a surprise party on their half birthday! Love this party favor from Our Hobby House – Thanks for HALFing a good time! Consider putting in half a candy bar.

A basket would be a cute addition to baby half birthday ideas. Add balloons and have a half way to one photo shoot for a half birthday!  | Source

Don’t forget to pack a surprise lunch. No need to add gifts, just wrap up their sandwich, fruit and chips like Craftibilities.

These birthday balloons are a fun surprise and best of all will not be expected on a half birthday (notice they are half way down the door!)  Organize Your Stuff Now shows you how to fill them with money!

Half birthday party supplies might be hard to come by. Instead make the table festive with little expense. These Kid-friendly place settings use kraft paper trimmed with a washi tape border. Disposable bamboo plates get dressed up with decorative washi tape cut to spell 1/2. More half birthday ideas from Camille Styles.

Confetti OREOs dipped halfway into chocolate make delicious treats. Recipe on Sprinkles for Breakfast.

Don’t forget you can have half birthday for adults too. As a gag gift, give them half the glass. Half full or half empty, your call! Great gift for dad. This half glass works as well.

Two Moms and a Blog filled the hallway with balloons. Weigh them down with quarters (for older kids) or tie them to small gifts.

Party and create half a masterpiece like this half birthday birthday at Dazzle White Frazzled.

It’s true! People who have more birthdays live longer! Celebrate with this quote and your favorite felt letter board. | Milk Honey Nutrition on Instagram

If you have an older half birthday, take them on a Birthday Treasure Hunt. It doesn’t have to be a big prize at the end, just something small and a cute way to recognize a half birthday. These 20 Birthday Scavenger Hunt Riddles are perfect for an at home celebration.

Now that we have infiltrated your head with ides for a half birthday, let’s find yours so you can celebrate!

What’s My Half Birthday?

It’s very easy to calculate your half birthday. First, identify your birth date. Take your birthday month and count six months later. Keeping the same numeric date, that is your half birthday. You have only switched the month.

For example, my birthday July 15th. I calculate six months from July. It’s January. So my half birthday is January 15th.

Enjoy and half fun looking for something to celebrate YOU and your family and friends more than once a year!

There has never been a better time to start. Easy Printable Baby Sign Language Cart – 25 Basic Signs and Words For Moms. Teaching young children sign language gestures has never been easier. Details on how and when to start early communication. Instantly download six baby sign language printable charts custom to your own style.

Easy Baby Sign Language Basics

Easy Sign Language for Babies

What is baby sign language?

Baby Sign Language is the use of hand motions and gestures to communicate with infants and toddlers. This language of movement takes place prior to spoken language development to share emotions, desires and objects.

Sign language for babies is used to communicate with young children before speech is formed. It is a language that is not only used for those with hearing loss or difficulty. ASL baby sign language can prevent cries for babies who don’t have the words to express themselves. It also has the benefit of connecting auditory learning (via verbal communication) and kinesthetic learning (via the use of movement and motions.)


Is baby sign language the same as ASL?

What does ASL mean? In the case of sign language, ASL is an acronym for American Sign Language. ASL is one of many sign languages. Like spoken language, different countries use different sign language. Our baby sign language instruction chart is ASL.

When to start baby sign language

It is never too early for a baby to learn signs for early communication. Through sign language, communicating with preverbal children can began before speech envelopment occurs. The earlier you introduce sign-language, the more familiar your child will be when they have the motor skill to sign back to you. Babies as young as six months of age can benefit from sign language to express what they are feeling.

When you begin introducing food is a great time to start teaching sign language to babies. Start signing five simple words. Eat. More. Please. Finished. Thank you.

How to Teach Baby Sign Language

How to to teach baby signing

It is very simple and easy to teach baby sign language. Your baby will watch you sign the words and hear you say the word. Sign the word and say the word multiple times and then perform the action. For example, if I see my child has finished their Cheerios, I might say and sign more three times before I had my child more cheerios.

As you progress, you can sign and say the word then take your child’s hand and gently teach them the action. Say and sign more three times. After you do that, take your child’s hand and gently say and sign more with your voice and their hands. Repeat three times. Then hand your child “more” (in our example, the Cheerios.)

Repeat these same steps with all the new words you introduce. Start small, mastering a few simple words and skills. As your child becomes familiar with these basic signs, introduce more signing motions and gestures.

Examples of Baby Sign Language Basics

Start with some common phrases. In our family we began with these five examples of baby sign language basics.

More: Bring your thumbs and fingertips together, to make flat O shape. Then, bring your hands together and pull them apart repeatedly.

Finished: Open your palms and spread your fingers. Face your palms toward you and twist your wrists a couple of times.

Drink: Make your fingers and thumbs in the shape of a C like a cup. Plus the C on your chin and tilt the C toward your mouth as if drinking a cup.

Thank You: Place your fingers together and extend your thumb. Touch you fingers to your chin and bring your fingers forward as if blowing a kiss.

Please: Place your fingers together with thumb extended. Rub your fingers on your chest in a circular motion.

Eat: Place your fingers and thumb together in a pinching motion (as if making a duck bill or birds beak). Put your fingers and thumbs to your lip with the top of your hand facing outward. Repeat the motion as if feeding yourself with pinched fingers.

It’s important when you sign the motion, you also speak the motion for hearing babies and for non hearing babies. Hearing babies will connect the sound and motion. Non hearing babies will connect the motion and lips.

For additional resources, take a look at this Video Signing Dictionary.

Even with my three boys (ages 4, 4, 5) I find myself uses these basic signs in communication as part of their everyday interactions. Just a matter of habit.

Overall, give yourself some grace. The sign language gestures that you use in your home can be personalized to your family. What sign language motions work for your home? Even if they are different from ASL or any other foreign sign language, they fit for your family. Your child will not go to Harvard University based on the wrong signs they learned at 6 months of age!

It’s easy to make your own scripture cards. You can purchase 3×5 index cards and rotate memory verses out continuously. It’s really nice to index cards you have memorized in a index card container to create a scripture memory box. Alternatively, you can attach them to a keychain.
