Schools out, it's heating up & it's time to have some summer fun! To help you beat those summer lulls-I've compiled a list of the 25 best things to do over summer to make sure your break is one to remember!
1. PICNIC IN THE PARK WITH YOUR BESTIES
The best things about summer are the food, the friends, and nice weather, so take advantage of all three and set up a nice picnic for you and your friends with a few of your favorite eats at your local park OR even just in your backyard.
2. PAINT TWISTER
Just like the twister you remember, but way messier! Put colored paints on each of the twister circles and watch the players slip, slide and twist as they get covered in paint!
3. ROAD TRIP
Grab a friend, your family or BOTH and head out on an epic road trip. Visit another city, state, or cool touristy site. Just make sure you to pack blankets, snacks, car games a camera and most importantly, music!
4. ROAST MARSHMALLOWS
Roasting marshmallows may be a classic but you gotta admit it’s a perfect summer activity no matter if you're home or out camping by the fire.
5. STARGAZE
Summer nights are perfect for stargazing and it’s so amazing to unplug and take a little while to watch the stars- even if it's just in your own backyard.
6. KAYAKING
If you’ve never been kayaking before, this is a good time to try it! Kayaking gets you outside, in nature spending some quality time with some of the quality people in your life!
7. GO TO AN AMUSEMENT PARK
Six Flags, Disney Land, Lagoon or even just the State Fair-I don't care where you go- Just make sure it has lots of rides, lots of delicious food and it'll be a night to remember!
8. WATCH THE SUNSET
Hand in hand with stargazing, summer nights are just right for watching a sunset or two... and fun fact-sunsets are easily one of the prettiest things to look at. Period.
9. NIGHT SWIM
Swimming at night can have a very different vibe compared to classic day swimming. First, it’s not as hot outside, it's quiet, you can see the stars and if you don't have them already it's the perfect setting for some backyard string lights.
10. WATER BALLOON FIGHT
Water balloon fights are the perfect activity for letting out some rage while cooling off on a hot day. Win. Win.
11. DANCE IN THE RAIN
Dancing in the rain is something you see in movies but it’s way more fun in real life. Besides summer rain is by far the best rain!
12. BAKE
It doesn’t have to be fancy, it just has to taste good...and the company is great!
13. GO TO A CONCERT
Concerts are the best, and going with some good people makes it even better. Summer concerts =the perfect time to forget about everything else and just listen and dance to amazing music.
14. HAVE A BEACH DAY
Beach days are a must during summer! Surfing, tanning, swimming, sandcastles, it’s perfect storm for an EPIC summer.
15. DO YOGA
Become a Yogie-shake off the summer rust and get moving, and stretching and flexible about how your summer is shaking out.
16. SLIP N' SLIDE
Whether it’s in your backyard or at the beach, store bought or homemade, a slip n’ slide is fun no matter how old you are and it is a perfect addition to the perfect summer!
17. HAVE A BBQ
Summer food is THE BEST food and a BBQ is definitely the way to go any day or night.
18. HAVE A SPA DAY
Take care of you, and stay relaxed and stress free. Spa days are so fun, especially with friends and so important for that self care-so have a bath, a massage, a face mask, a manicure, or whatever. Just do it and do it right.
19. GET TAN
I don’t know about you, but bronze is my happy color and I'm pretty sure if you aren't building up that tan you might not be doing summer right. So lay in that sunshine, or self tan and get that summer glow!
20. TENNIS
If you don’t know how to play tennis, summer is a great time to learn! (also the outfits are REALLY cute).
21. GO ON A BOAT RIDE
Get yourself out on a boat and take some friends! There are so many fun activities you can do and so many amazing pictures you can take.
22. GO TO THE ZOO
Going to the zoo is perfect for hanging out with friends/family and no matter how old I get I will always be excited when I see flamingos at the zoo!
23. GO TUBING
Tubing is a perfect activity that’ll get you out of the house and it’s so incredibly fun! Just don’t be scared to get your hair wet.
24. TIE DYE
Tie dying is such an easy activity and tie dye clothes are making a comeback, so get out of your comfort zone, get creative and make some already cute clothes 10x's cuter.
25. GO CAMPING
I mean...Glamping is technically still camping....Right?
