Hello once again! Last week to celebrate the start of summer the kids spent some time building a vertical garden, going to the playground, and riding their bikes. We’ve also been up to a few other things that you may see on the blog in the near future. Wednesday is Canada Day and our official start to summer. We are hoping for some nice weather for a barbecue, and then again on the 4th of July. One can never celebrate too many holidays! But should the weather be too warm for you, we’ve rounded up some water fun and games to help keep you and the kids stay cool.
Are there any special occasions you’ll be celebrating this summer? I’d love to hear about them in the comments below!
If you missed last week’s round-up, I featured 80+ Outdoor Summer Activities For Kids. Have a look through and be inspired! This resource for Moms is packed full of parenting tips, activities for children, crafts, recipes and more!

Staying Cool With Water Fun
A classic! Making music with water is a time-tested and always-loved activity for kids. Life Over C’s tells us how to do it, and shares links to many other fun water activities as well.
Enchanted Homeschooling Mom has a couple of learning games for the kids to play with water balloons. Great for the hand-eye coordination as well.
Tiny tots Adventures has a fun way to include both older and younger kids in water play! She has a great sport in her home.
And for the ‘icing’ on the water play cake. There’s Just One Mommy shares 20 ways to stay cool and have summer fun with ice.
