August is National Family Fun Month, but it’s also time for most local students to head back into the classrooms.
Starting back to school is not exactly the best way to start a post about National Family Fun Month. However, there are plenty of fun ways to close out the summer even when school districts insist on holding back-to-school activities during the hottest month of the year. It might be hard to take an extended trip, but there are plenty of weekend and evening hours to enjoy family time. Or, has your family wrapped up the summer fun with the plan to use August as a time to get ready for fall? If so, you may want to schedule a BlueBox Rental dumpster now, before you start that home improvement project or clean out effort.
Below are a list of great ideas to do before families say “goodbye” to the long summer days of 2022.
To celebrate, you may want to :
Watch a movie in the backyard- Take an overnight camping trip to a local campground
- Take a day trip to nearby town or city
- Go out for ice cream
- A picnic and play games in a local park
- Enjoy a backyard campfire
- Take a family bike ride
- Visit the closest zoo
- Go fishing
