7 Ideas for Summer Fun with Your Kids

April 29, 2012 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Summer Leave a Comment

Every year kids and parents look forward to summer vacation, but a few days spent cooped up in the house can make everyone a little crazy. If this sounds familiar, check out these seven ideas for summer fun.

1. Make a T-shirt

Most kids love to make crafts, but crayons and construction paper get boring after a while. Instead of pulling out the art supplies, head to
your local store or garage sale and purchase some inexpensive, solid-colored t-shirts. Kids can use fabric or acrylic paint, markers, dye or just about anything to make a shirt that they can wear proudly. You can also do this with hats or visors and inexpensive canvas sneakers.

2. Go on a Picnic

Enjoying the great outdoors is a must during the summer, and one of the easiest ways to do that is by going on a picnic. Gather your kids up to make a menu and get them involved with the cooking and preparation. Assign each child an important job to do (gather silverware, make sandwiches, count juice boxes), and pick a table at your favorite park or even a sunny spot in your own backyard where you can enjoy your meal. As an added bonus, you and the kids can bake cookies or cupcakes for your excursion.

3. Have a Scavenger Hunt

This one is great for new readers who need to keep their skills sharp during the long weeks spent away from school and can be as easy or as
elaborate as you would like. Simply make a list of common items your kids can find in your house or yard. These might include a rock, a coin, a red toy, a blue crayon – you get the idea. If your kids can’t yet read, draw pictures or cut them from magazines. Have a prize ready for whomever finds all of the items.

4. Arrange a Reading Contest

This one helps your kids stay on top of their education and it can be fun, too. Set up a goal number of books and any other rules you may
want to include (such as books must be at least 20 pages long) and whenever your little readers reach a certain milestone reward them with stickers, trips to their favorite parks, sweet treats or movie night. Save the biggest reward for the largest number of books.

5. Go Camping Inside

This one doesn’t involve a tent or even the outdoors. Allow your kids to set up camp in your living or family room by bringing pillows,
blankets, sleeping bags and a bag of their favorite toys, books and snacks. Pop some popcorn and put a movie in the DVD player to add some extra fun.

6. Have Your Own Summer Olympics

Summer is a great time of year to get your kids moving, and what better way to do that than having an Olympic-style competition? This
isn’t your average Olympics, though. Depending on how much money you want to spend, you will have to get creative with your competitions – three-legged races and egg and spoon races are always fun. You can set up obstacle courses with lawn furniture and use items such as beanbags, water balloons and bubbles to create other competitions. Just don’t forget medals or rewards for the winners.

7. Volunteer at Your Local Animal Shelter

This idea is inexpensive and can teach your child about helping others. Most animal shelters allow people to come walk or play with the homeless pets. Just be sure you check ahead of time to make sure there are no age requirements for volunteers.

Allison Smart loves planning summer activities for her family, which includes her husband, Mike, and three kids, Luke, Matt, and Sara. A
favorite family activity is boating at the nearby lake. When they needed a good rate on their boat insurance, Allison and Mike looked no
further than http://www.boatinsurance.org/

Well, it’s the time of year again when Target starts marking all of their summer gear down dramatically!  They also begin clearing toys out to make room for the new ones that will hit the shelves in the fall.  I have not been yet to check out my stores; but some have reported already sighting summer items on clearance for 75% off and toys at 30% off.  The toys will go further; but there’s no telling exactly when, so get out there and see what you can find at your Target and let me know!

I love this time of year to stock up on Christmas and birthday presents for the coming year!  Don’t forget that many summer items can also make great presents or just good restocking for next year!

Thanks, Passion for Savings (for the picture too)

Closed. Giveaway – ZeroWater Filtration $200 Kit #WinGiveaways

This giveaway is closed. Congratulations goes to Sandra U.

I am not a fan on soda, juice, and rarely drink tea. I must say that my favorite drink that I always crave is WATER! Yes, water. I am grateful that I don’t tend to drink empty calories, but water becoming my drink of choice I have become quite the water snob! I notice regional differences in water and perfer the water I have in my home. I was really excited to take the ZeroWater Challenge.

ZeroWater is an In Home Filtrations System that uses a Duel-Ion Exchange system to remove virtually all dissolved solids from Tap Water. In fact ZeroWater is the only filtered system that meets the FDAs Requirements for Purified Bottled Water and it’s considered just as effective as Reverse Osmosis in reducing chomium-6 levels in water. All ZeroWater products come with a testing meter that guarantees a 000 reading on Total Dissolved Solids. Plus, ZeroWater Pitchers & Dispensers are BPA-free and they offer a Filter Recycling Program to help you discard of used filters.

If you compare your Standard Water Filter which is a Carbon Based Filter to Zero Water you can see the difference in the total dissolved solids that remain. Testing the water in my own home including 1) Tap Water, 2) Filtered Water and 3) Zero Water, I ended up with some surprising results. My Tap Water contained a reading of 113 TDS, the Filtered Water was 65 TDS and the Zero Water was 000 TDS. I was really surprised at how little difference there was between the Filtered Water from the Fridge and the Tap Water.

ZeroWater has an option for just about every Size and Budget:

ZeroWater 23 Cup Filter Dispenser – This ZeroWater Dispenser offers a one-hand pull and pour button spout which allows you to easily fill up any cup or Bottle with water. The dispenser is 10 1/2″ Tall and only 6″ wide. The 23 cup dispenser also features a tapered top design to allow it to easily fit into the top shelves of your refrigerator.  This ZeroWater product also features an easy access fill lid so you can refill your dispenser without removing it from your refrigerator. The ZeroWater 23 Cup Dispenser retails for just $39.99.

ZeroWater 10 Cup Pitcher – This ZeroWater product is a cross between the Pitcher and the Dispenser. It gives you the option to Pour the water or use the Dispenser on the bottom of the unit to fill water bottles and more. With a 10 cup Reservoir you get the benefits of both the Pitcher and the Dispenser with the added space saving benefit. The ZeroWater 10 Cup Pitcher is sold exclusively at Bed Bath & Beyond for  $37.99.

ZeroWater 8 Cup Pitcher – The 8 Cup Pitcher contains an Ion Exchange Filter which removes the chlorine taste you typically get with Tap Water. It also removes any dissolved solids that may be in your water including Aluminum, Lead, Zinc, Nitrate and more. This ZeroWater pitcher is small enough to keep in your Fridge or on the Counter and contains a One-Hand Pull & Pour Spout to fill any Bottle or Cup. The 8 Cup ZeroWater Pitcher retails for just $35.00.

1 Lucky Winner will win all 3 of these ZeroWater Products plus a supply of 8 Ion Exchange Replacement Filters. A Value of over $200!

If you are eager to shop now, get 50% off the  8-Cup pitcher with coupon code zwhalf8cup or the 23-Cup dispenser with coupon code zwhalf23cup.

    This giveaway is closed. Congratulations goes to Tami.

    Father’s Day is often one of the hardest time of the year to come up with original ideas, or ideas that will be within your budget. Many dads see something they want and they just buy it…or when you ask them what they want, they answer “Whatever you get me is fine!”. There are only so many ties and socket sets that you can buy for Dad before the gifts become just more clutter.One of the ways to avoid giving a gift destined for the back of the closet is to give a consumable gift!

    1800Baskets has an amazing selection of gift baskets and there is one for every budget! Is Dad a golfer? The Taste of The Tour Tote Bag & Snackswith its snacks, golf balls, tees and cooler would be a great gift! Is Dad always trying to fix everything around the house? Help him keep his energy up with the Handyman’s Snack Gift Set .

    So many dads will spend Father’s Day in the backyard cooking on the grill, making the Happy Father’s Day Classic BBQ Gift Set the perfect gift set for any dad! Stuffed with Jim Beam® Spicy Bourbon BBQ Rub, Steven Raichlen® BBQ Rub, Robert Rothschild® Onion Horseradish Dip, Crisp Red Tortilla Chips, Smoky Cheese as well as some handy barbecue tools, Dad can “step out of the hamburgers and hot dogs box” and experiment with new flavors. There is even an adorable Cheryl’s Cookie that looks exactly like a hamburger! The whole thing comes packed in a box that looks just like a grill!

    If Dad prefers the sweet to the savory, you will want to take a look at Cheryl’s Cookies. Cheryl’s Cookies are melt-in-your-mouth good! Each cookie is baked fresh from the best ingredients and individually wrapped. Their seasonal buttercream-frosted cookie collections are always a big hit with any cookie lover!

    One Frugal Coupon Living reader will win a Happy Father’s Day Classic BBQ Gift SetAND a 12-count box of Cheryl’s Cookies, wrapped perfectly for Father’s Day!

    In addition, readers can use the coupon code  DAD15 for 15% off all orders on 1800Baskets.
