As the school year draws to an end, I'm always looking for fun activities to do with my class.
Here is a really cute project made by my good friend Tracy Geisinger.
She has created these fun and engaging Summer Fun Count-Down Rings.
These rings are filled with fun and creative tasks for kids to do during the summer.
I love these activities because they get kids outside doing something, or they involve creative endeavors like drawing, building or making something. I've just shared a small sampling of the activities you get. There are also blank rings to write your own ideas. You could add some academic tasks or visits to your local parks or museums. Put a date on one and meet your kids somewhere for a picnic or afternoon of reading your favorite books. Be creative and personalize these.
Parents will love these because it battles the inevitable "I'm bored" phenomenon that happens. (There is nothing more frustrating to hear as a parent.) I include a ring with a beach day where I invite all my kids to meet me at the beach (with their families of course) and we spend the day frolicking in the waves and building sand castles.
I made these with my class last year and parents told me they had so much fun completing the tasks over the summer with their kids. The activities got the whole family engaged in the fun.
These are super easy to prep and kids love making them.
They really are perfect for those last few days of school.
