Plans and activities to enjoy the last days of summer with your family

It seems like just two days ago it was June, the kids were finishing school, and the hot days at the beach were just beginning. And in the blink of an eye, we're in August, with September and the return to routine just around the corner. Summer is very intense and passes faster than many of us would like.

But it's not time to get sad or make a big deal out of it just yet. Summer has to be made the most of every moment. August isn't over, the kids haven't started school yet, and technically speaking, summer doesn't officially end until September 22nd. So there are still days to enjoy, with lots of fun plans and activities to enjoy with the family and create beautiful memories. Today we suggest five great plans and activities for the rest of the summer.

Go camping

Summer is a great opportunity to get out of the house and get back in touch with nature. To do this, you can grab a tent and spend a night or two under the stars. Kids will love the adventure, while also reaping the benefits of playing outdoors. A walk through the woods discovering the flora, a swim in a nearby river or reservoir to cool off and have fun, or even a nice time fishing.

If you don't have a tent, don't worry, because campsites have numerous options for enjoying a few days of fun and relaxation with the family. Plus, with SaveFamily watches, you can set up a safe zone for the little ones, which could be the perimeter of the campsite. If they happen to leave, you'll receive an alert on your mobile phone.

Excursion to a tourist spot in your area

Sometimes we forget the tourist attraction of the area we live in. Being there 365 days a year, we lose interest and sooner see the appeal of places farther away than our own home. But there are surely hundreds of corners of your own city or rural area that you haven't yet discovered. And you can take advantage of these last days of summer by exploring some of these places.

Visit a charming little town, go to a museum, admire a monument, or simply stroll and enjoy the beautiful parks and gardens. There are many attractive options waiting for you that you haven't even heard of yet. And these types of family outings and adventures create the best memories that will stay with the little ones forever. For these types of outings, SaveFamily watches are an excellent accessory, as they have a GPS tracker that parents can use in case of a minor distraction.

Board game afternoon

If it's a rainy or stormy day, the family doesn't have to get depressed at home, as there are also many entertaining activities that parents and children will have a great time with. For example, spending the afternoon playing different board games will give the little ones a break from using screens and help strengthen the family bond. It's also a lot of fun. If you're looking for a long game, you can try Monopoly. And for a laugh, games like Party and Co., Gestures, or Pictionary are great alternatives. And to ensure no one cheats or spends more time than necessary trying to guess their friend's picture, SaveFamily clocks come with a stopwatch.

Another option is to play video games with your children. One way to better understand the hobbies and interests of the little ones in the house is to share them with them. Since video games tend to be one of the most popular leisure activities for young people, you can suggest holding a family competition to see who their favorite game is. This way, children practice skills related to dexterity and concentration, while also spending time with their parents and siblings.

Nature walk

For children, nature is an amusement park, an excellent medicine, and a learning classroom. That's why organizing family walks and hikes through nature can be very beneficial for children and adults alike. Nature provides a relaxing feeling; you escape the hustle and bustle of the city to spend a few hours with only the sound of birds and the leaves in the treetops. Plus, this way, the little ones get some exercise, and they can treat the trip as an adventure.

To make sure this trip is a memorable one, you can bring one of SaveFamily's cameras with you to photograph the scenery, the animals, and take selfies with the whole family.

Visit a multi-adventure space

If thrills and adrenaline are your thing, a multi-adventure getaway with the family is a must. A day of leisure and physical activity where you can go rock climbing, conquer vertigo with the Tibetan bridges, take on the zip line, have fun with a paintball fight, or even try your hand at canoeing. A real adrenaline rush with plenty of sport and nature for the perfect summer day, both for the little ones and the older ones. For these types of activities, the SaveFamily activity tracker is a great accessory, as it features a pedometer, 16 sport modes, and health monitoring.

There are still plenty of summer days to enjoy with the family, and the best way to create unforgettable memories is to find fun activities that will keep the family together and have a blast.
