This summer, give your kids the freedom to play, explore, read, and create. With the right mix of tools and toys, every day can be its own little adventure. The sun is shining, and your little adventurers are ready to explore, create, and play! If you're looking for ways to keep kids busy this summer, look no further.
We've rounded up some of our favorite toys, books to inspire hands-on fun and creativity all summer long. Take the magic of reading outdoors! Cozy up under a shady tree with books and nature guides that fuel curiosity about the world.
Tip: Start a Backyard Book Club where kids read and act out their favorite stories using props from nature.
Nature-themed craft kits
Building, painting, and imagining. DIY birdhouses, rock painting sets, and leaf-press kits are fun for all ages.
Tip : Craft kits also make great gifts for birthdays, camp care packages, or rainy-day surprises.
Timeless Wooden Toys
Simple wooden toys invite open-ended, imaginative play and are built to last. Whether it's a nature puzzle, stacking game, or forest-themed play-set, these toys are perfect for quiet mornings or family playtime.
Grow & Learn
Summer is the perfect time for kids to get their hands dirty in the garden! Seed kits and growing projects teach patience, responsibility, and the joy of watching something bloom. Plus, it connects them to the food they eat and the planet they live on.
Try This: Create a mini kids garden where they’re in charge of watering and caring for their own little plot.
