Summer is less than two weeks away! Here are some basic summer activities to keep busy and make this summer the best one yet:

• Host or attend a huge bonfire. Roast marshmallows and make s’mores around a fire with all your friends.
• Speaking of s’mores, try the S’mores Blizzard from Dairy Queen. It’s the best Blizzard and is only available in the summer months.
• Eat the ripest, juiciest watermelon you can find. In fact, eat all kinds of melon, because they’re delicious.
• Go swimming at night, whether it be a beach or a friend’s pool. It is a completely different experience from swimming during the day.
• Go on a picnic!
• Go to a drive-in movie; they are so much more fun than going to a regular theater.
• Make your own ice cream.
• Watch a fireworks display.
• Get into a water balloon fight (or a water gun fight) with friends, family, or neighbors.
• Host a block-party for the neighborhood to get together
• Skip rocks on a lake (preferably somewhere up North).
• Plant flowers or tend to a garden.
• Visit the state fair!
• Most importantly, have fun no matter what you’re doing and make memories!

These are just a few of the many fun things you can do during the summer. If you have any fun activities to add to the list, comment down below!
