It's time to have fun!

"Our northern summer is a caricature of southern winters", so every fine day counts, and we want to spend it as brightly as possible. Now I'll tell you about our exclusively summer entertainment with children (which, among other things, look great in photographs ;)

Picnics are our number one priority; we have turned this festive event into an everyday one. It turns out that this is a great alternative to boring walks on playgrounds and more expensive entertainment such as amusement rides. All you need is a mat and a supply of the most common food: sandwiches, fruit, cookies. We take books, badminton, a ball with us and spend several happy, light-filled and warm hours in the park, alternating snacks, reading and active games. And a kite also comes with us on the picnic – this is the same summer entertainment. You run barefoot on the grass, catch the breeze and admire Batman soaring against the background of the high sky and white clouds – just the quintessence of a happy childhood!

One of the most interesting adventures in the city was when we organized a small quest for the children on the street. We drew a treasure map that started from the house and led to a sandbox full of buried treasures: pebbles painted with gold paint, glass balls and similar beautiful little things. Even a seven-year-old child selflessly dug in the sand with a shovel in search of treasure.

Did you make "secrets" as a child? This is when you dig a hole in the ground, put in there, like a magpie, all the most beautiful things in this world - a candy wrapper, glitter, a flower - and cover it with glass. My children and I haven't done this yet, but we need to try - I wonder if today's youth will appreciate the power of these works of art.

A similar format of creativity is a frozen herbarium. We collect small bright flowers and leaves, put them in ice molds and freeze them. It turns out very fresh and avant-garde. And summery.

And once we celebrated a children's birthday in the park, and it was very hot. So we all really enjoyed the war with water balloons: pour enough water into the balloon so that it is the size of a fist and tie it tightly - the bomb is ready, imagine how bright, wet and fun it is! Children against adults - attack!
