My kids are so excited for summer –(me not so much! I need schedule!) But I wanted to welcome in summer with a bang! So I whipped up this fun free hello summer printable for you–as well as some fun ways to kick it off!
I paired this a bunch of fun activities–giant frisbee disc, orbeez, splat balls, glue for slime.
I, of course, that it would be way more fun to receive it all in big swan floatie. (found all these fun stuff at Michaels!)
You could also add in new swimsuits, shorts, treats, flipflops or swim shoes…or ever just stuff from the dollar store!
Another fun thing we did was I bought THESE water beads (aka orbeez) –I bought two! and added them to a swimming pool- They came home to a pool full of gooey orbeez!
It was so fun! I shared on my Instagram and I had a lot of questions about what to do with them when you are done! First, we are having a party in a few days–so I thought we could let each kid take a handful and a sandwich baggie full of them. The rest can be put in a big bucket so my daughter can play with them throughout the summer. I also found this fun idea to add them to slime. And I saw that you can put them in a balloon and squeeze them for a quick stress ball! So we will make sure to put them to good crafting use!
And here is the free printable for hello summer!
I do have this available as a cut file here in my shop!
