End-of-Summer Fun Ideas for Kids
I hope you’ve had an excellent summer! As kids are getting ready to go back to school, I thought I’d share a few inexpensive entertainment ideas to squeeze in some end-of-summer fun.
Backyard Camping: No Reservation Required
Set up a tent or canopy for an outdoor sleepover, featuring after-dark games like flashlight tag, Ghost in the Graveyard, glow-in-the-dark ring toss, or storytelling topics. Don’t forget the s’mores!
Roll Out a Bike Parade
Have the kids decorate their bikes and show them off in a neighborhood bike parade. Set up a row of folding chairs for spectators, and have a lemonade stand for all to enjoy. Pack the kids a cooler with ice cream bars to celebrate the day.
Host a Backyard Talent Show
This can keep the kids busy for more than one day! Have them sign up for the event beforehand to give them time to hone their skills. Encourage solo and group performances to get everyone involved, whether it’s performing music, dancing, magic tricks, or comedy skits. Top it off with an award presentation and pizza for all!
Enjoy the rest of the summer, and don’t forget – if you know anyone in need of a dedicated mortgage professional, we’re your one-stop-shop for all your mortgage planning needs!
