Summer is an exciting time!
It is a time of freedom, warm weather, water, sunshine and lots of down time. Often time kids get bored and lets me honest mom needs a break outside of the house.
Here is a list of 30+ activities
that can get you off the couch and out of the house almost every day of the summer.
 |
| Evergreen Park |
- Go to the Park
- Find a splash pad near by
- Seven Peaks water park (Purchasing a PASS OF ALL PASSES is an awesome idea! It is around $40 but it gets you a season pass to Seven Peaks Water Park, Tracy Aviary (on Tuesdays), Seven Peaks fun center, and much more.)
- Tracy Aviary
- Liberty Park
- After going to the aviary in the morning head to Liberty park for lunch and playtime. There is an awesome playground, splash pad, and a miniature version of the East Mountain canyon lands and rivers with running water.

- We did this last weekend and it was a blast! Eli had so much fun riding on the train, airplane and carousel. For $20 you get an all day pass to ride any ride in the Little Miners Park and Adventure Zone. Eli was just tall enough to ride the carnival rides and go mini golfing. It was still a fun time! For around $15 more you can buy unlimited rides on the alpine slide on coaster, if your child is tall enough.
