creative ideas and inspiration for the home and family
This is the second year in a row my family will be following this fun summer schedule. It keeps the kids just busy enough to have something to look forward to each day and definitely adds variety to our summer schedule.
Here is an image that can be printed and laminated and then you can use a dry-erase marker to write the activity you have planned each day:

this is great! thanks:)
Oh I love this! Wonderful idea! I’m going to have to use it with my four year old. Thanks!
Cute Idea! I too created a summer schedule but it is more what we are going to do during each hour of the day. I thought it would be good to get it on paper that my kids are expected to do chores, read, and have quiet time each day, in addition to all the fun activities we will be doing. I sure hope it works!
Thanks!! I will for sure be using this idea.
I saw this on Pinterest today! Thanks so much for creating and sharing — it’s perfect!
Thank you! What a great tool to use
Haha, should we put go to Tucker’s house for the Friday activity sometime lol?
LOVE this idea… still some structure for your summer!
Great idea. I love routine and schedules… pretty nerdy I guess. lol
I just posted this to my facebook page. http://www.facebook.com/EastCoastMommy
my kids still have a few weeks left but i’ve been thinking about our summer schedule-this sounds like a great idea-i like that you assigned a certain day to go to the library-thanks for sharing!
That’s a great idea! Just enough structure but still exciting!
This is a great idea! Thanks so much for sharing!
What a fabulous idea! I LOVE it! Thank you so very much for sharing!
This is excellent. While it’s not summer here, I’ve been meaning to put some routine and structure into my toddler and baby’s week. It is so easy for the days to just blend into each other. This is just the prompt I needed. Thanks.
Love Love Love it!!! I’m so glad my mom sent me your blog address. : ) Thanks for sharing! hope all is well! love you!
I am definitely going to use this! I am working on my schedule right now. Thanks for sharing!

Hi! I linked over here from ann voskamp. Wanted to tell you that I’ve been an at-home mom for almost 17 years and I have four kids. I should have thought of a simple schedule like this, but I never did. We’ve used this loose schedule this week with great success
It helped me keep my younger two kids engaged and looking forward to something. Just the right amount of structure, but not too rigid. Thank you 
Hi Alyssa-
I am so glad this has worked for you! Thanks for stopping by!
Love this! Printing now to put on the fridge. Thank you!
I’d love for you to link up and share: http://tutusandteaparties.blogspot.com/search/label/Link%20Party
This is ingenius! Will use this summer for sure! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Deirdre! I’m glad you like it!
LOVE this! I am unable to print it off though… is there a download?
Hi Haley, I just added the link to download the PDF- let me know if it isn’t working for you. Have a great night…
Love this idea for my hubby who will soon face his first summer as a stay at home daddy!! Thanks! =)
Hi I love this I was wondering If there is anyway you could upload this so it’s changeable I just wanted to switch around some of the days!
Thanks this really is great!!

Hi Tia-
I dont have a changeable option, but if you want to change it, try uploading it to ipiccy.com and just put a white shape over the top of the text and then add your own text over it. Ipiccy is free and super simple to use! Warning, you will become addicted!
Thanks so much!!
We have done this the last few years – it has worked really well!! Being flexible is important but being able to look forward to activites is great!!
What a great idea! Will definitely be using this with my boys this summer. Thanks!
I’m trying to open the pdf but it is not working. Can you email the pdf “summer schedule for kids” to me? Thank you.
This is awesome thanks!
Sorry to bother you again. Ipiccy doesnt allow me to upload pdf. Can it be converted to a jpeg?
Thanks
Tia
I am going to print this out for my granddaughter-in-law. Her children were bored by 3rd day of summer vacation, so this might help her out. Thank you for great idea. Take care.
I saw this pinned a while back and just recently remembered and then could not find it, my wonderful friend just sent me the link and I have very happy, I am going to use this idea for my three and two year old’s week!
Thanks
