ULTIMATE Summer Kid's Activities Roundup

Welcome to our Fun In the Summertime Series!  You can find the rest of the posts here!

You're going to love this roundup of Summer Activities I've put together for you.  I have three kids home for the summer, and I don't think I could ever find enough ideas to keep them busy (without breaking the bank!)  Read on for some fun (and frugal) activities to keep your kids entertained and you worry-free!

1.  Free Summer Reading Programs from Frugal Living Mom.  My kids LOVE to read, so I'm all about earning free stuff along the way!  These are also great motivation if your kids don't enjoy reading.

2.  Dolly Bookmarks from Two Sisters (Review Books).  So sweet and easy!

3.  50 Summer Activities your Family Can Enjoy For Free from Saving Cents with Sense.  So many of these are perfect for my family!  How about yours?

4.  Fly Swatter Painting Kid's Craft from Glued To My Crafts.  I know two little boys who love to hit things!  At least now I can make that impulse into art! 5. Surprise Rocks/Dinosaur Dig from The Kitchen Is My Playground.  What a great idea!  I want to do this in secret so my kids are truly surprised!

6.  DIY Kiddie Car Wash from Mom Endeavors.  Anything to help keep cool is a bonus in my book!

7.  Summer Backyard Chalk Activities from In the Playground.  Saying yes to drawing on the house?  Your kids will love you for it!

8.  DIY Sponge Bombs from Stockpiling Moms.  Again- harness your kids' love of throwing things!

9.  Free (or Cheap) Online Summer Camps from Frugal Living Mom.  I'm a cheapskate, so this is right up my alley!

10.  Truffula Tree Pencils from Two Sisters (Review Books).  I love making things to go along with favorite books.

11.  Smashin' Ice Fun from Glued To My Crafts.  Hammers and water?  Oh yeah! 12.  Use Baking for Summer Reading, Writing, and Math Practice from The Kitchen Is My Playground    (Can I just eat all those treats?  Yummy!)

13.  DIY Ring Toss Game from Mom Endeavors.  This would keep my kids entertained for hours.

14.  10 Fun and Free Activities for Kids in the Garden from In the Playroom.  I don't have a garden but I do have lots of space for one!

15.  Lemur-themed Food from Two Sisters Review Books- perfect for any of the Madagascar movies!

16.  Backyard Fishing Activity from Mom Endeavors.  What kid doesn't love fishing- especially if it doesn't involve having to bait a real hook? I hope that helps you get started on an awesome summer!  Which one are you dying to try out first?
