Have So Much Fun with your Teens Summer Bucket List

Visit somewhere awesome!

Summer is the perfect time for camping in much of the U.S. One thing I want to do next time we go camping is try a little birdwatching. I read this guide about birdwatching while camping and am excited to see which birds we find next time we head out into the woods.

Dont forget to make your own bug spray before you head out to camp. This stuff smells great and will keep the bugs away!

No matter where youre traveling to, check out these summer travel tips. Packing a first aid kit is important, but there are many others on the list as well!

National Parks are always on our list for summer. Not only because the yearly passes are affordable, but because no matter where you are in the country, you can drive and find a National Park to visit! I found this list of National Parks to visit and have already added a few more to our list.

Eat something awesome!

For a quick, healthy breakfast or snack on the go, try this simple and refreshing smoothie bowl recipe. The kids will enjoy making their own, adding fruits and granola.

We are kicking off summer with some healthy treats, but you know after a week or two, were all craving something sweet. A fun summer dessert to add to your must try list is making your own ice cream. Try some new flavors!

We all love donuts, but they can get expensive, so why not make them at home? Here are some great donut recipes that your kids will enjoy making and eating. Theyre inexpensive to make and you can customize them with different toppings (chocolate chips, sprinkles). Youll be able to get creative while satisfying those sweet cravings!

Do your kids love blueberries? Mine do! This delicious blueberry crisp is perfect for summer. You can use fresh or frozen blueberries to create that sweet and tart taste we crave so much during these warmer months.

Kids are always asking for a drink, and of course they want fun drinks, not just water. How about some Lemonade? Yum! Its the perfect way to cool off on a warm summer day and easy to make a big batch of when friends are over.

Get your kids to cook dinner for your family when you need some fresh ideas. The kitchen is a great place to learn life skills.

What is your favorite summer treat?

Make something awesome!

Get the whole family involved in these fun crafts and activities. These are perfect if you are looking for a quiet day inside, because its raining or maybe its just too hot.

Each of these film canister rockets cost less than a dollar to make. They are fun for kids and adults alike! The best part is that this activity will keep your family entertained for hours (or at least long enough to get through dinner)!

Do you have a teen who loves outdoor activities? Make beautiful flower painted rocks that will be sure to brighten up any day! All it takes is some paint, water, and rocks. You can use different colors depending on the look or theme of the rock or just one color if simplicity is what youre after. And they will make a great addition to your own backyard.
