Summer ≠ Boredom

Summer is about to begin and for many of us, travelling is not an option for a way to spend it, getting bored and sweating seems more like our summer definition… let’s change that!

Looking around the social media two years ago, I found this thing called “a summer bucket list”. I then remembered I had read it and seen it in movies but always though they were too hard or elevated for my age. So I decided to make my own summer bucket list and I gave it a twist of fun.

I then shared this idea with two of my best friends and we created our own list. Without further ado, I will enlist some ideas for you and your friends to choose which ones are age, location and budget appropriate.

  1. Switch phones for a day (are you dependent of your phone?)

  2. Buy the same clothing item! (we chose some cozy sheep socks)

  3. Go to the nearest dress shop and try on the ugliest dress you can find

  4. Do each other’s make-up at night

  5. Prepare some questions on little paper strips for a pj girl talk

  6. Get a fake tattoo

  7. Dye your hair temporarily (cool-aid, beer and lemon are good to go)

  8. Get a tan (beware of too much exposure though)

  9. Try Spaghetti tacos

  10. Make a very spicy mix and eat it without drinking water (fuego chips, salsa…)

  11. Build a blanket fort

  12. Set a reading goal

  13. Start a journal (check out our Jornal Ideas post in the FLDSMDFR section)

  14. Camp in your backyard, a hammock or a trampoline

  15. Try new smoothie recipes

  16. Create a theater at home and have an awesome movie night

  17. Try rock climbing

  18. S’mores night!

  19. Have a nerf gun fight

  20. Go on a picture rally hunt

  21. Play twister with paint

  22. Volunteer! (there’s many help needed everywhere)

  23. Have a summer job

  24. Try babysitting

  25. Dress a certain color for a week

  26. Visit prisoners, orphans and sick people at hospitals

  27. Go vegan or vegetarian for a day

  28. Help out at a shelter

  29. Make a garage sale (this way you can increase your budget)

  30. Go on a sibling date

  31. Learn a new language (Sign language may be interesting to learn)

  32. Have a flour fight

  33. Go paintballing

  34. Buy meals for homeless people

  35. Play under the rain

  36. Try new clothing styles

  37. Try a new sport (aerial dancing is original)

  38. Swim at night

  39. Have a movie marathon (barbie, Harry Potter, Fast & Furious…)

  40. Try doing macrame bracelets

  41. Learn how to crochet

  42. Make a time capsule

  43. Do your own haircut

  44. Say “yes” to everything for a day

  45. Loose some weight

  46. Make prank calls

  47. Play hide and seek

These are just some of the many basic ideas you can do to change your summer definition, I hope you like them and have a great summer!
