School is almost out. (Give me a minute… I have to do a happy dance real fast…..) Okay, I’m back. I’m so stinkin’ excited that summer break is almost here I can taste it. (What the heck does that mean, by the way? “I can taste it?” Does that mean I can taste summer?)

Anyways…. A lot of Moms look at me with wide eyes and say “are you crazy?! What do I do with your kids all summer?!” Perhaps I am a little crazy, but I LOVE being with my kids! Oh yeah, and I work in a middle school so I get the summer off. THE SUMMER OFF! Whoo hoo! So we’re excited. I  don’t care what the rest of you think =o)

My kids and I have already started our summer bucket list. We write down everything that we want to do during the summer, from camping to eating fondue in the backyard to making milkshakes. They don’t have to be trips or big things, just things we want to do. It’s pretty easy for us to come up with a million things that we want to do or make or places we want to go. But I know there are so many people out there that have a hard time coming up with ideas to keep their kids busy and entertained during the summer. Because let’s face it, bored kids kinda drive Mom’s crazy sometimes. Am I right?

Well, in comes The Confident Mom’s Summer Survival Calendar.  It’s a 4 month calendar with activities (recipes, crafts, etc.) to do every single day!  Yeah, an activity on every day.  It’s so cool!

How do I know how cool it is?  Susan, from The Confident Mom, sent me a copy of this amazing calendar!  Why?  She featured our Homemade Bouncy Balls as one of the activities!  How cool is that?!?!?

If you’re going to be home this summer with you rkids (of any age), I strongly encourage you to check this out.  I can’t wait to start clicking on all the links to see how to make the amazing crafts and recipes!
