COVID-19 PROCEDURES TO ENSURE YOUR SAFETY
Summer 2020 is looking a little different this year. With many businesses still closed, and summer camps not an option, you might be wondering what there is to do. Instead of focusing on what you can't do, focus on using this time to bond with your family. There is something special about having the gift of time with those you love.
This is fun for all ages, and chances are, you already have everything you need to set this up. An obstacle course not only helps your kiddo burn off extra energy, but it also improves gross motor skills, coordination, and balance!
Get creative with the equipment you already have. Set up balance beams, play with hula hoops, break out the kiddie pool. You can see some fun ideas here on Pre-K Pages...
Make sure to involve the whole family. Kids love to see mom and dad play with them too!
Crafting is even better in the summer because you can get messy outside (yay for easier clean up). Creating art is beneficial to children of all ages. They learn to be creative, build fine motor skills, and create a sense of achievement that helps boost their self esteem.
Arts and crafts time is the perfect way to bond with your kiddo. Brainstorm ideas together and take advantage of this time to talk. Happiness is Homemade has some great ideas on their blog, check out their top arts and crafts here...

When it's hot, the last thing you want to do is use the oven. But that doesn't mean you can't enjoy a sweet, homemade treat. Make homemade popsicles, no-bake cookies or a parfait.

Plan a vacation with your family. While some of the major resorts may be closed, you can still find a cute Air BNB or campsite. If you don't feel comfortable flying, make a road trip out of it.

Whatever you choose to do this summer, focus on your time together as a family. You don't have to take grandiose vacations. Most times it's the simple moments like smores over the campfire that your kiddos will remember most.
"We do not remember the days, we remember the moments." - Cesare Pavese
