Summer is almost here and having fun with our children is essential! As Phineas and Ferb say “There’s 104 days of summer vacation and school comes along just to end it.” I don’t know about you, but I do better when I have order in my life and a Summer Activities Schedule is perfect!
I want our summer to be full of fun and memories, and not too many time outs and melt downs. I read somewhere that we get 904 Saturdays with our kids before they go to college. That isn’t long at all! By incorporating crafts, reading, swimming, thinking about others, and FUN into our summer schedule we will have covered a lot of activities and created a lot of amazing memories.
Make It Monday can be crafts or cooking. It is always fun to turn to Pinterest for new ideas. If you are looking for ideas for Time To Read Tuesday check out:

On Pinterest I saw Somewhat Simple’s schedule and fell in love with it! I wanted something that cute to hang on our fridge, so I turned to PicMonkey and created my own, non-perfect Summer Activities Schedule! You can download this summer activities schedule in pdf form to use for yourself. But don’t worry, our feelings will not be one bit sad if you like Somewhat’s Simples more!
