What is a Summer Bucket List?
It’s a list created anywhere from April – May that shows what you’d like to do that summer. You can make one for yourself or one as a family. We chose family.
Why Make a Summer Bucket List?
- Helps you look forward to summer
- Mom’s, it helps when your kids are bored and you’re looking for something to do
- Because it’s fun to cross things off a list (if you’re a bit OCD like me)
- It’s fun to think of new fun activities and trips to take
