20 Home Summer Activities to Beat Boredom

As summer approaches, moms fall into one of two categories. There is the mom who can’t wait for her kids to be home and who looks forward to less structure. Then there’s the mom who dreads the long summer months because she has to create structure! No matter which mom you are, the inevitable, “Mom, I’m bored!” comes. Having a list of home summer activities has helped me so that I’m not scrambling to find something for my girls to do on those summer days.

This year I created the Summer Planning Guide to help me be intentional about summer and create fun memories. A Summer Planning Guide is a digital product that you can print or edit on your computer. It includes fifteen pages of planning sheets. A Home Fun List is included in the guide.

Most of the summer activities on this list are toys and supplies we already have at home. Others I picked up as special for summertime.
