We all want to squeeze out every last drop of summer that we can before school starts up again, right? Here are a few fun ideas for you and your family:
Backyard camping
It's an inexpensive and easy entertainment for your whole family, no need to travel, and if you forgot to bring something, then just pop back inside the house! Want to make it even more special? Ban the screens and just enjoy each other’s company without the distraction those devices bring.
Beach day
You know you want to squeeze in one more trip to the shore!
Bonfires
The nights are just beginning to get cooler, so it's a perfect time to build a glorious bonfire. Invite friends, stock up on ingredients for s’mores, and enjoy!
Living history
Head to the library and check out a biography of Annie Oakley or one of your other favorite figures in Wild West history, read it to the kids, and then head to Wild West City in Stanhope! It’s an authentic western heritage theme park which features live action shows and living history in a setting inspired by Dodge City, Kansas in the 1880’s. Check out www.wildwestcity.com for details.
Local festivals
Harvest festivals, blueberry festivals, apple festivals, film festivals and local fairs abound this time of year. Check out www.visitnj.org/nj/events/festivals to find out more.
Water park
Never been? They can be loads of fun! Try out Crystal Springs Family Waterpark in East Brunswick, or Runaway Rapids Waterpark in Keansburg, but don’t forget the sunscreen because you’ll want to spend the day!
