Fun Activities To Do This Summer!

In This Article:

Once school is out and there is no more homework they are just hanging around at home or with their friends trying to find things to do. Try doing some of these fun activities by yourself or with your friends this summer!


Take a hike 

This is always a fun and most of the time cheap activity to do this summer. This also gets your body moving and gets you in shape!

Take a road trip

This doesn't have to be far but take a drive somewhere you haven't gone yet or a place that everyone loves but doesn't go often!

Make/buy a slip and slide

This is always a fun option for the summer. If you don't want to go buy a slip and slide make one yourselves! This is great for a hot summer day!

Have a movie night in your backyard

This is always a fun option. Get a sheet and project a movie up in your backyard! Pop popcorn and have all the classic movie snacks!

Have a read-a-thon

This is great not only because it takes more time than some other activities but it is also awesome for those massive readers! It helps you get through more books, and you can even make it a competition on who can get through the most books!

Pack a picnic and visit a park

This is always a fun activity. Go to a park or a woodsy area, pack some snacks and enjoy the fresh air!

Go to a farmer's market

This is a great way to make memories, spend time outside, and get some fresh food!

Have a bonfire

Having a bonfire is essential in the summer. Get marshmallows and make s'mores with all your friends!

Play Kickball

This is a fun activity if you and your friends are a little more athletic. You can even put baby pools as your bases for a summer kickball addition!

Go watch the sun rise and set 

This does require you to get up pretty early but it is definitely worth it. Sunrises and sunsets are so pretty and are worth driving to go see. You can even go get breakfast or ice cream afterwards!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
