Summer Bingo Challenge

a little something to help you make the most of your summer bucket list

Hey, Everymoms!

Can you believe it’s July already? Summer is flying by and we suddenly found ourselves frantically checking the calendar counting down the days we have left to make the most of it. That’s why we put together this summer bingo card! It’s the perfect low-key way to add a little structure (and a lot of fun) to your days. We created two versions: one pre-filled with simple activities the whole fam can enjoy, (like bike rides and board game nights), a few activities just for the kiddos (like completing a coloring page when mom needs a break!) and, one blank version so you can build your own based on what your kids want to do (or what you actually have energy for). Stick it on the fridge, hand out some stickers, and let the summer memory-making begin!

1. Have a movie night

   1. check out this nostalgic list for ideas!

2. Go for a color walk

   1. Pick a color and play a game to see how many times you can spot it on your walk! If you’re feeling extra generous, let the kids pick out a treat of that color too.

3. Have a family olympics day

   1. The best part about this is really anything can be an Olympic sport (folding laundry?? summer closet cleaning? all viable)
