Your Comments amazing list, hope you do most of them and have fun doing them
Fab list – we have a lot of these on ours. Love the water balloons on s trampoline one – we need a trampoline first but this us one for when they are bigger x
This is a great list. And very comprehensive, too, I must say. I think we’re only here for about two weeks this summer so there’s no point writing a list, which I’m a little sad about actually! xx
such a fun list! i got some ideas from your list too:)
Looks like you are going to be very busy – good luck #CountryKids
That is an interesting and huge list to get through in the summer, keeps us posted with your progress – good luck and thanks for sharing on Country Kids.
A great list – will keep you all busy through the summer. We might make a mini one for Lucas – I’d definitely have the train ride on there. So many fun ideas!
What a wonderful list of lovely things to do Jen, you will make some amazing memories. And be kept busy! 😉 x
Now that’s a long list! Wow! Mine has about a third of your things, and I was hoping to accomplish about half of it and call it a success…
Hope you have a great summer 🙂
Fab bucket list!! An loving what Free Range Summer has brought so far & we’ve not properly started yet!!

Day one of our summer holidays here and all I’ve managed so far is to turn picking up the toys into a game so I could hoover. You’ve inspired me to do better! Thanks for linking up to our Parenting Pin-it Party.
