School is out and that means that it’s time to have THE BEST SUMMER EVER! We try our very best to always stick close together and bond as a family and summer is a great time for that. It’s also a time to have fun, travel, and do things that we normally would not be able to do during the school year. Here are a few ways that we plan to have the best summer ever:
Sign The Kids Up For Camp
Summer camp is an experience that your kids will remember forever. There are overnight camps as well as day camps to choose from, and many offer different activities based on what your children like to do. Day camps often take trips to nearby excursions, or offer sports, while overnight camps might offer anything from horseback riding, jewelry making, caving, backpacking, canoeing, or diving, amongst other things. Not to mention, sending kids off to camp is fun for them AND gives you some quiet alone time to do what you want to do. Your kids will be begging you to go back year after year! It’s not too late to sign up, many camps are enrolling children right now!
Outsource Your House Tasks
In order to have the best summer ever, you will want to outsource as many house tasks as you can, in order to spend time together as a family! Obviously, if you are looking to save money, you can schedule out time to do some things yourself, but there are other home tasks (such as roof cleaning) that you probably just want to leave to the professionals. Roof cleaning is one service that ZAP Cleaning offers. They are a locally-owned and operated cleaning company that specializes in pressure washing, house washing, roof cleaning, gutter cleaning, and window cleaning, as well. They provide service to areas in Greenville, Spartanburg, Anderson, Clemson, Easley, Liberty, Travelers Rest, Piedmont, Williamston, and more in South Carolina, and they are in the business of getting rid of unsightly elements from your home, concrete surfaces, and roofs.
ZAP Cleaning does everything to go out of their way to make sure their clients are happy and fully satisfied. In fact, this is their number one goal each time they provide their services. They do this by providing the best customer service, reasonable pricing, timely and accurate estimates, and more. They do not cut corners and provide only the best services for your home or business. This means taking the time to provide a “soft wash” which is low-pressure washing. It is slow, but it is definitely the best option in my opinion, because it will not damage siding, decks, patios, and it incorporates a special low-pressure nozzle on the end of the pressure washing gun or wand that does not damage surfaces or kill plants.
If you want to have the best summer ever, consider outsourcing some of your home projects to ZAP Cleaning – they will not let you down!
Spend Time Outdoors
Nothing screams “summer” like some good ol’ fashioned sunshine! Spending time outdoors can be so fulfilling, and there are so many different activities you can do based on your preferences!
If you are more of an outdoorsy person, try finding a hiking trail or mountain near you. There are often some great views along the way, and you can get a good workout while you’re at it! Biking is another option that can be great to do whether you are in a city trying to get to dinner, or whether you are in a rural area and want some great sightseeing.
If you don’t think of yourself as an outdoorsy person, there are plenty of outdoor activities for you, as well. Laying out by the pool or swimming are great ways to get some vitamin D and enjoy the sunshine. If laying around isn’t your thing, look for an outdoor shopping mall and gather your girls for a shopping trip. You can get some errands some while catching a few rays! There are great outdoor activities that you can do alone if you want some quiet time, or involve the whole family for some great family bonding time.
Take At Least One Trip
We try to take at least one trip each summer. Vacationing with kids can be more challenging and stressful, but it is such a great way to bond as a family and honestly, traveling is the best learning experience that you can give to your children. Each city has its own unique history and you can share that with your children.
Try To Relax
Last but not least, summer is also for relaxing! Grab a book and some sunscreen and head to the pool or the beach for a relaxing day in the sun. You do not want to plan too much this summer or else you risk the possibility of becoming stressed. Instead, schedule out some downtime to do ‘whatever floats your boat,’ and just have fun and take it easy. That is the best part about summer!
Now you know how we are having the best summer ever! Let me know how you are doing the same!
Great ideas! I still need to find a camp!!!
