Kick Off The Best Summer Yet With Your Kids

Make Many Memories Together

Ready for summer? Have you started enjoying the long summer nights and extra time with your family? Perhaps you want to get ready for kids spending more time at home. If you want to have more fun with your kids this summer, check out these ideas.

Shade Tent: This pop-up tent provides lots of shade in almost any setting. It can easily fit two full-sized camping chairs, or pack an entire family in on the picnic blanket. Window coverings let you decide how much sun or shade you prefer. And best of all, it sets up in seconds and packs up compactly, making it easy to take almost anywhere.

Easy Spirited Snack: Layer their favorite fruits with a scoop of yogurt for an easy treat any time. Use strawberries and blueberries for a festive red, white, and blue treat. Or try any other fruits you have on hand. Alternate layers for more pizazz when you use a clear container.

Splash Pad: This affordable splash pad sets up with ease. All you need to do is connect the hose, and the water inflates the ring around the edge. Adjust the hose as necessary to get the water spray to the right height for your child, and then sit back and enjoy the fun.

Splash Pool: Once your kids graduate from the splash pad, this pool lets them fully submerge in summer fun. Inflate each level with air then fill the inside with water for a pool big enough for some serious splashing. With a built-in bench, it works great to keep parents cool on hot summer days, too.

Portable Hammock: If you want to lounge in style anywhere you go, this hammock has got you covered. It comes with a stand that can be easily assembled, and a sun-reflecting cover. So even if your favorite shady spot gets taken at the beach or the park, you can bring your own. It can easily hold multiple kids or has plenty of space for one adult to stretch out with their favorite book or beverage.

Youth Kayak: If you want to go all out this summer, and your kids have learned how to swim, consider getting them their own kayak. This lightweight version handles easily so kids can learn the basics of this fun sport. It comes with a paddle and has molded footrests to fit a variety of ages. Plus the bright colors make them easy to spot on the water.
