Perfect Summer Treats - Ice Tea and Peach Ice Cream
What are you doing this summer? You don't need to plan a fancy and expensive vacation to enjoy it. Instead, focus on the simple summer pleasures this year. Here are some great ideas to get you started.
Sitting on the front porch with a nice tall glass of ice tea watching traffic go by.
Get out the old hammock and hang it up in the backyard under a tree. Read a trashy novel or just catch a nap.
Watching the kids splash around in a kiddie pool or any old container you can fill up with water. Don’t have one of those laying around? Pick up a few water balloons instead and let them have fun in the driveway.
Dig out all those fun and comfortable summer clothes like sun dresses, pretty sandals, shorts and tank tops.
Making peach ice cream with the kids and enjoying it as a perfect summer treat. If you have one of those old-fashioned hand cranked ice cream makers all the better. It’ll keep the kids busy for a good half an hour to 45 minutes. Scoop the ice cream into bowls, hand everyone a spoon and enjoy right on the front porch, the back yard, or wherever you decided to make this creamy treat.
Summers are made for eating outside. Turn lunch into a backyard picnic or fire up the grill and cook hot dogs or burgers for dinner.
Get the kids into bathing suits, add some sun screen, grab your camera and then turn on the sprinklers. I’m willing to bet you’ll put aside the camera and jump into your own bathing suit after a few minutes.
Take the kids swimming to the same pool, pond, lake or beach you went to as a kid.
Check your local paper and websites and find a free outdoor concert to go to. Grab a blanket, some cold sodas and pack a picnic dinner to enjoy while you're listening to the band.
Make reading books special. Take a trip to your local library and stop at a park on the way home. Spread an old blanket on the ground in a shady spot and have everyone read for an hour before heading back home.
Take everyone strawberry or peach picking at a local orchard. Then figure out together what you’re going to make with all that yummy produce.
Pack up the family and go on a road trip. Create a scrapbook or memory box of the trip to cherish in the cold winter months.
Catch some fireflies in the back yard right before bedtime. Let the kids keep the jar full of the little bugs overnight. They make a fun night light. Don't forget to release them in the morning. Or just step in the yard after dark and watch them fly around.
Make a batch of pancakes for breakfast and top them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, some chocolate syrup and of course a cherry on top. I’m sure your kids will love these pancake Sundays.
Let's not forget about the beach. Take the time to head there for a week, a weekend or even just for the day. Get out the sun screen and your bathing suits and spend the day watching the kids splash in the waves and building sand castles.
