Instead of just sitting around all summer, why not get outside and try something new? But if that doesn’t sound like your thing, here’s a list of ideas that might inspire you.
- Travel, if possible.
It can be expensive, but you don’t have to go far. Even a short trip to Joplin or Kansas City can make your summer more memorable.
- Make plans with friends.
Hanging out doesn’t have to cost anything. It’s easy to have fun when you’re with people you know. All it takes is a friend, a date, and a time.
- Go on a drive.
It might not sound exciting, but a scenic drive can be surprisingly relaxing. Find a peaceful route, play your favorite music, and enjoy the view.
- Visit the pool.
You don’t have to go alone! Going to the pool is a classic way to cool off, especially since there aren’t many other nice places to swim nearby.
All these activities can make summer more fun—but don’t forget, summer is also a break. There’s nothing wrong with kicking back, binge-watching a show, and getting some much-needed rest.
