There is no excuse not to have an amazing summer with your kids! I get it, sometimes we wake up and just don’t know what to do. Sometimes we need a suggestion for every budget. Sometimes we need a little push. Well, hello I’m Shetoya the pusher! This summer I am challenging you to make lasting memories with your babies even if you can’t go on a fancy vacation. Here are some great ideas.

• Picnic at the beach. Bring lunch, a blanket, and a positive attitude.
• Go to the museum and/or zoo.
• Get the movies in the park schedule. 
• Go watch a baseball game.
• Pick a day for a nice bike ride at the lake front.
• Go berry picking.
• Make ice cream dates.
• Painting in the park. Bring all of your painting materials and do it under the tree.
• Go swimming at your local park.
• Go horseback riding.
• Visit a water park nearby. Look for coupons online. 
• Have dinner on a kid friendly patio.
• Do an outdoor family photo shoot.
• Scavenger hunting is always awesome.
• Water balloon fight.
• Take a ride on a Ferris wheel
• Spend the night at a hotel (staycations are amazing)
• Last but not least take plenty of pictures!
