It is finally the time all students have been waiting for! It is summer break! After all of the endless hours of school work, it is time to sit back and relax. During your summer break you should really do some fun activities to reward yourself for all of the hard work you put in this past school year. Here is a list of fun-filled ideas to do during your summer break!

1. Have a campfire.

Grab a couple of friends, sit around the fire and make some s'mores! You can also go camping with some family or friends. It is always fun to just sit by the fire roast some s'mores and tell ghost stories (if you are into that kind of stuff)!

2. Go to an amusement park.

What is more fun-filled than an amusement park? Put your hands in the sky and scream at the top of your lungs while you rush down a roller coaster!

3. Have a picnic.

Grab a blanket, some of your closest friends (or significant other) and a basket filled with your favorite snacks! I would recommend having your picnic where the scenery is beautiful, maybe at a local park so afterwards you can also go explore the park!

4. Go hiking.

Hiking is a great way to get some exercise while also enjoying the beautiful scenery that is around you! You will feel on top of the world once you get to the top of your hiking destination! Try to find a nearby stream and take a dip. The cool water will feel amazing in the summer sun.

5. Watch the sunrise or sunset.

It’s a beautiful sight to start or finish your day! Try to catch fireflies, have them light up a night outside and then watch them fly away. It is amazing to watch!

6. .Have a water balloon fight.

On a really hot day, go out and buy some balloons so you can have a water balloon fight with your friends! It is a fun way to keep cool in the hot weather!

7. Go to the aquarium.

Sometimes when it gets too hot, you don't really want to do much outside, so going to the aquarium is the perfect resolution for this issue! Go and explore all the wonders of the sea life! (My personal favorite thing to see at the aquarium is the penguins!)

8. Have a barbecue.

Get out the grill and invite some of your closest family and friends over because it is time to have a barbecue! It is also a great time to learn how to cook or learn some new recipes since you have a lot of down time in the summer! Make a delicious meal that everyone will be ranting and raving about!

9. Go to the beach.

Going to the beach is my favorite thing to do during the summer! Go to the beach, put your toes in the sand and soak up the sun! There is no better way to spend your summer day!

10. Go explore what the world has to offer.

Summer break is a time to relax and get out of your comfort zone. Go visit all the places you can go; it doesn't have to be anywhere exotic. Just get in your car someday with some friends and family and go for a road trip!

I hope you all make the most out of summer 2016 because before you know it, it will be over in the blink of an eye, so make fun-filled memories that will last a lifetime! Be sure to take a lot of pictures to capture all of the memories!
