The last day of school means freedom for the kids, but not for moms. If you are a mom looking for things to keep your kids busy this summer, here is a link to a Boredom Bottle that I got from a friend's blog. I also have inexpensive summer activities that I compiled for an Enrichment Activity a few years ago. I made a simple "advent calendar" (for lack of a better word) out of felt with pockets. Each day the kids could pull a slip of paper out and do the activity. In some pockets I had "Pick something from the Summer Fun box," where I had small toys or crafts that I had collected throughout the year.

What a great idea steph. I love the colors of your Summer Advent calendar (I don't know what you would call it either).
Great ideas! My head is still spinning from the last few weeks of school, but when it stops I will try a few of these ideas.
Wow---this is such a great list. I'm going to bookmark it and come back everytime I'm trying to think of what to do--which is a lot. Thanks!
