These 25 Summer activities to do with kids while you are self-distancing might help make your summer at home plans easier. From obstacle courses to outdoor charades here are 25 Summer activities to do with kids while you are self-distancing!…
Stay home together this summer
Many parents are opting to keep their kids home from camps this summer (and many camps just aren’t open due to the pandemic). You can look at it two ways: 1) you have a LOOONNGGG summer ahead of you 2) you can make a plan to stay home together. Personally, I’m attempting #2.
When you have a list of go-to activities – it can help plan your weeks. And as the world opens up, you might be up for a playdate at a distance – but wonder what the kids can do at a distance. Thus, crowdsourced with some friends and came up with this list.
PARENT CLUB TIP:
When it comes to playdates and having fun with people outside your social circle family — keep a distance. If you are playing frisbee golf – everyone use their own frisbees. When you are playing driveway pictionary – everyone keep a 2 meter distance. If you are shooting pucks – bring your own hockey stick and takes turns at a distance.

Lots of great ideas, but the kids are really wanting to go back to school and to see their friends
