Are you all jumping for joy, like me, that this school year is over? Are you excited for summer - almost as much as the kids? This is a great time of the year when kids are stress-free and can enjoy being kids with the opportunity to spend even more quality time with family and friends.
I'm ready to celebrate the end of this school year.
Here are 5 Ideas for the Last Day of School Fun : |
1. Get silly
It's time for a water gun or silly string attack! Surprise kids after that last assignment is turned in and the computer is turned OFF!
2. Devour yummy treats
How about ice cream floats for the kids for breakfast on the last day? They'll love it.
3. Burn it!
Build a campfire and let the kids burn their school papers collected over the year. Don't forget all the s'mores makings!
4. Decorate with chalk
Decorate the paved road or sidewalks in front of your house with chalk drawings and well wishes for summer. Leave a box of chalk with a sign inviting passers-by to leave well wishes too.
5. Host a slumber party
It's time to call the besties to watch a movie, giggle, and eat lots of snacks.
Happy summer. Please stay healthy and safe!
