Even though we’ve never done one before we’ve decided to make a bucket list for the summer! Usually we like things to be low key and laid back in the summertime, but then we came up with the idea of old school activities for children! You know what I mean–all of the fun summertime activities that we used to do when we were younger.
Some of the activities on the list are ones we love, some we don’t do enough, and some we haven’t done before, but all of them are ones we want to pass down to our children. I’m excited to share some of my childhood with my kids!
