30 Day of Summer Fun Challenge Are you ready for summer vacation? If you’re like me, you’ve been counting the days for the busy school season to end, but then a week into summer you start wishing school would start again (seriously). It’s great to finally have time with the kids, but it doesn’t take long before they start with the “I’m bored!” mantra.

Even though my son is little (4-years-old to be exact), he is still the exact same way you would expect a 14 -year-old to be when he gets bored.. a little terror. This year we are going to skip the “I’m bored!” and try something different. I want to invite you to do the same. We are going to do a 30 Days of Summer Fun Challenge to break the summer funk cycle.

What is a 30 Days of Summer Fun Challenge?

30 Day of Summer Fun Challenge

Well to different people it can mean different things, but to me it mean getting out and have fun with my little one for 30 days straight! That probably sounds really challenging but trust me it’s not. Even if you only do something small, you are still doing something together and making memories with your child (plus you are keeping them from muttering those dreaded 3 words).

While some of these things might seem trivial, I have learned sometimes the simplest things can be the funnest. You don’t have to be a millionaire or plan extravagant activities to have a good time! I have put together a very simple and doable 30 Days of Summer Fun plan to help you get out there and have a ball. You can print yours by clicking the 30 Days of Summer Fun calendar below.
