Winner chosen and pm'd. Please delete. Kid Summer Survival Potluck RAOK

[mbromberg545]

This is my first RAOK and I really wanted to do something that I would need.

I have 3 kids (ages 6 months to 4 1/2) and I need different types of q's for the summertime!

This RAOK will include a potluck of q's for things that I would need during the summer. There will be grocery, diapers, sun items, restaurant, first aid, etc q's. There will at least be 25 q's, but probably more.

I will have my oldest pick a number out of a hat Wednesday night before he goes to bed (8pm CST).

Just post below what yall's favorite thing to do with your kids/grandkids in the summer is. If you don't have kids, just post a fun idea.

Well, our favorite thing is to go creekin'. The boys talk about it all year long while they wait for it to get warm enough to go again;-)
Congrats on your first RAOK;-)

Nothing is better in life than sitting out on the back porch all summer long while the boys dig in the dirt, play baseball, blow bubbles, chow down popsicles, swing n slide, roast marshmallows, fight over which ball they want(yes, we have at least 15 diff balls haha)...ALL of it!
Thanks for the chance :)

Thanks for the great RAOK!
Summer is like our vacation! We don't have alarm clocks and strict schedules to deal with so each day is an adventure. I try not to plan activites because it goes against the no scheduling. Each day the kids pick from a hat when they get up and whatever the card says it what we do that day! I try to make the cards fit the weather like swimming, geocaching, zoo etc! The kids love it and I love making memories with them!

I love this!!


We go to a ton of parks! My little boy is an only child and he is so social! So I try to get him out with other kids a lot...we visit the splash pads too..those are so much fun for the kids. We also go to a lot of summer type festivals. Thanks for the chance at the raok!!

"Roughing-it" in the backyard. The kids like when we sleep out in the tent and roast marshmallows (which usually end up stuck in someone's hair, LOL)
