Summer is over but not the fun!

Many of my friends are feeling a little down this time of year. Summer is over and the children have headed back to school. But, that doesn’t mean the fun has to end!

Fall is my personal favorite season. Yes, the days are getting shorter, the kids are in school, the temp is crisp. But, there are still tons of fun to be had. With the weekends as the main time for fun these days, it is about making it count. It doesn’t take a lot of money to do that either.

1.) Go for a walk! It is free quality time with the family. Try some place new, like an Audubon areas or a state park forest. Collect signs of fall, like leaves you can take home and rub.

2.) Have a weekend backyard campfire. It is never to late to make S’mores!

3.) Lay on a blanket and look at clouds. Is that a dragon or a duck you see?? Make up stories about the different shapes you see in the clouds.

Over the next month or so I will be posting all about fall fun. So say goodbye to Summer (we will miss you) and hello to Fall our new fun time friend.
