End the season on a high note with these simple but super fun summer activities for the whole family!
- Go on a picnic (or host one!). Pack a picnic basket with your favorite sandwiches or salads, and go out. Eat with your family some place other than a dining table. You can also host a picnic-style luncheon with friends or your relatives. Be it in a park or your backyard. One thing for sure is this is a refreshing twist to your usual get together.
- Go camping. Plan a simple camping trip. Bust out your tents, sleeping bags, board games, and get together with your friends or the whole family for some quality time out in the woods. A low-key option for kids is taking them on a “camping trip” to your backyard - BUT with all the bells and whistles, so they’d still get to experience all the fun activities associated with spending some quality time with their friends outdoors.
- Go swimming one more time. Enjoy a fun day at the pool, Gregoire Lake, or a splash park one last time before summer ends; or don’t miss out on your chance to go swimming this summer if you haven’t had the chance to do it yet. Take lots of photos - make memories with your family, and don’t forget to hydrate and wear sunscreen!
- Frozen Treats! Spend a day with your family and friends and enjoy healthy home-made frozen treats, like fruit popsicles...
