Bucket lists are a great way to plan fun things for you and your family to do. As well as our usual monthly goals I love to plan a few extra fun things for Summer. Last year we had lots of fun completing our 2016 summer bucket list. So much so that I made another one for the Autumn.

The summer holidays are long are can feel daunting with children to entertain. I wrote about how we are planning our summer holidays on a budget recently. With this in mind, I’ve added things to the bucket list that will fit in nicely with our plans.

I usually devise our bucket lists by myself but this year Daisy has added a few things. I love that now the kids are getting older they can get involved too. It’s so much fun to sit down as a family and make plans.

Here’s our summer bucket list for 2017.

• Eat fish & chips by the sea.
• Make homemade ice-lollies.
• Camp out in the garden.
• Take a picnic to the park.
• Watch the sunset.
• Feed the ducks.
• Blow bubbles.
• Have a water fight.
• Climb a really big hill.
• Pick strawberries.
• Fly a kite.
• Visit the library.
• Go on a train.
• Visit a museum.
• Collect seashells.

I’m really excited to start ticking things off our bucket list. I will be back at the end of summer with a round-up post of everything we managed to tick off.
