My kids are just getting old enough to be sent to a summer or day camp. I went to a horse camp when I was very early teens. We got our horse buddy, and he was our responsibility. We learned a bunch of great things, and most importantly, we had fun. It was fantastic.

Picnics are simply fun. On the current economic status, saving money is a thing every family would like to do. Picnics are a cool way to to this.. What's so great about a picnic is that children typically like them just as much as adults. Hey, grab your picnic baskets and have fun.

I agree that outdoors is good, Richie! I like to try and get my son outdoors as much as possible. Miranda’s last blog post..Timothy Geithner Can’t Sell His House

Anything outdoors is good. I had three boys and am a teacher. Every week day during the summer we did an “adventure.” We panned for gold, took hikes, visited the railroad museum, went to the homeless mission, took a free tour of a local factory–you get the idea. Anything outdoors and cheap. A great list of academic activities is at http://penningtonpublishing.com/blog/study_skills/summer-daily-brainwork/.

Great list! We're opting for a local swim club that gives the kids swim lessons all summer for about the same price as a 2 week camp -- and the whole family can use the facilities. Spending It’s last blog post..Is Early Mortgage Payoff Wise?

Thanks! I agree @FFB, that many of these youth camps offer a great deal for the money. And, like @Costin, I wish that I had more time to enjoy the summer. Maybe that will by my goal this summer. Good luck Mihaela! Happily, though, walking and swimming are both great activities for adults, too. Miranda’s last blog post..Credit Card: It’s About to Get Ugly for You

Not too much to do with a newborn, well except swimming and walks – a great list, Miranda.

Thanks for the great tips. One thing you should add is taking pictures as much as you can, I’m sure nobody wants these great moments to be forgotten. The other one is backing up your pics, because trust me you don’t want to lose those priceless pictures. I use Safecopy backup, http://www.safecopybackup.com, to backup all my pics and data files automatically. I can also back up from my digital camera and other USB drives. I’m very happy with it and it’s worth checking it out. Good Luck!!

Great selection! I’ve done all that when I was a kid. Too bad I don’t have the time right now to enjoy these little things in life …
