Seven Ways to Extend Summer & Add Some Pop to Your Late Summer Activities
Yes, I know the calendar says September and the kids are back to school, but we still have a few weeks of warm weather and sunshine to enjoy! Summer doesn’t officially end until September 23rd. I love late summer get-togethers; a nice Sunday afternoon BBQ is my favorite way to extend summer just a little while longer.
Here are a few ways to help your family extend that Summer Feeling:
- It is still light in the morning, start your day off with a brisk walk.
- Don’t put the sandals and flip flops away! You’ll be wearing closed shoes and boots soon enough.
- Invite over a few neighbors or maybe your kid’s new school friends for a quick after school BBQ.
- Grab the cereal bowls and have breakfast outside before the kids head off to school for the day.
- Get the bikes out and go for a ride in your local park.
- Work on homework on an outside picnic table.
- Add a little pop to your activities by stopping at your local Kroger and picking up a box of Popsicles. Let your kids enjoy a cool treat after their homework is done.
Popsicle, the original popsicle brand, is a classic treat that’s been the center of fun for years, and now with more flavors than ever, you can pop some more fun into your everyday routine during these late summer days.
How do you try to extend the summer with your family? Do you have a favorite Popsicle flavor? Our family is old school. We love the orange and grape flavors.
