Summer Activities for Kids
30 Cheap or Free Summer Activities for Kids
Summer activities for kids are at the top of my list when the summer holidays are looming.
As a homeschool mum, I realised a little late that the holidays are already here! (Oops!)
Thinking about the summer holidays sends my brain straight into panic mode, “how on earth will I keep the kids entertained without losing my sanity, my patience or my pay check?”
We try not to take a full 6 weeks break from our homeschooling (because, well chaos), but I do like to have a plan. Because let’s be real, very rarely do things go to plan. You never know when you’ll need to pull out an emergency activity to keep the kids from strangling each other. (Please tell me I’m not the only one breaking up fights almost daily!)
So I made a FREE “summer activities for kids” printable. Somethings the kids can colour as they complete each activity – because there’s nothing more satisfying than checking something off your list – especially when that list is full of fun, screen free activities am I right?
30 Free or Cheap Activities for Kids
All 30 activities are cheap or free because sometimes you just need a break from swiping your debit card every 5 minutes!
I’ve rounded up a list of fun, summer activity ideas your kids will love and the best bit? – You don’t need a masters in Pinterest to prepare! No glitter explosions here bestie!
Let’s be real – if I have to spend 2 hours prepping so the kids can have 20 minutes of fun, well I guess nobody is having fun!
As a mum who limits screen time, the last thing I wanted to do was let the summer holidays because a movie marathon.
So grab the printable, put your purse away and let’s have some affordable fun without losing your will to live!
