25 Awesome Summer Vacation Activities For The Kids

Schooooools Out For Summmmmmmmer!!!

The kids are pretty stoked around here – 3 months of no homework, no early wake up calls and nothing but fun in the sun. They are young enough that they were a little sad to leave their teachers and classmates (I know I need to enjoy that while it lasts), but they are pretty excited for some summer fun.

In our house, the excitement lasted for all of about 18 hours, before the whining started up.

“I’m booooooorrrrred, theres NOTHING to do!”

And the fighting. Purposely annoying eachother. And more fighting.

UGH.

Pinterest to the rescue… STAT!!
