It’s the day before the first OFFICIAL day of summer and I am so excited to share some summer fun posts with you! A month ago, the kids and I sat down to chat about our new summer routine and what we wanted our summer to look like this year! I am the type of Mom that NEEDS a structured plan in order to get something accomplished. If I don’t have a game plan, we can fly through a day and look back and ask ourselves, what the heck did we even do today?!

In an effort to make summer fun and memorable (we get limited summer with these kiddos – especially these ages), we put together a summer schedule to encourage us to have the most amazing summer! I’m also sharing a very loose summer routine that I try to follow if I can! It helps give some form to our days and the structure is truly helpful for all of us!

Here’s a look at the summer schedule we came up with! We’ve already crossed a couple things off the list!

My kids are now 3, 5, and 7 – so this is the routine that works best for us! My 3 year old no longer naps, so we are able to be a bit more flexible with our days!

I do like to allow for LOTS of play time! My kiddos are outside A LOT, while I’m big on free play. I also discovered the importance of having some structure so the kids know what to expect every day AND I discovered it is just as beneficial for me to have that routine too! Hope this gives you some summertime ideas! See you tomorrow for all things SUMMER!
