10 Absolutely Free Summer Activities for Kids

10 Absolutely Free Summer Activities for Kids

These 10 FREE Summer Activities for Kids take me back to my childhood! You don’t need to go on a vacation to have a memorable summer. These fun things to do during the summer will help save you trips to the store. Yay!

Summer mornings are weird. Sometimes frustrating!

The routine goes out the window. Late nights call for late mornings. Heck! The kids still wake up at the same time no matter what time they went to bed. Lord help us all!

So, what do you do with the kids? They aren’t going to school for 3 months! Aaaaaaaaaggggghhhhh!

I did do a post of 25 Awesome Summer Activities you can pull from. But, what if you forget to plan for those for the week (you forget to draw the summer bucket list cards and go shopping for any supplies you don’t have laying around the house)?

Stuff happens. Life happens. Mom brain happens.

Don’t stress, Mama.

I have made another awesome summer activities list that doesn’t cost anything and doesn’t require a trip to the store. It simply uses what you have already.

Whoo hoo! Am I right?!

Free and simple are the best.

As a kid, we didn’t have much. So, my brother and I had to get creative alot. Especially during the summer time when we were bored out of our heads. But, those games and activities we made up are some of the best memories I have.

So, don’t go thinking, that even though you don’t go on some fancy vacation, your kids are missing out on a fun summer.

No way!

Sure vacations are nice. But, you can make the most memorable summer for your kids with simple things. Just be totally 100% present; and, they will love it!

So, here are the free summer activities for kids:

Star Wars Craft for Kids – X Wing

Star Wars Craft for Kids – X Wing

We made this Easy Star Wars Craft for Kids! I love that my kiddos can play with an X Wing Fighter with their Star Wars toys. So fun! Make one too. Plus, enjoy a Princess Leia and R2D2 coloring page.

We are big Star Wars fans in our house.

Don’t believe me? We have done some pretty cool crafts on Instagram. We have made:

  • Cardboard Tube Light Sabers,
  • Darth Vadar Shirts,
  • a Millennium Falcon out of a cardboard tube and cereal box
  • and a Darth Vadar Card.

We build legos into Star Wars ships all the time. We have Star Wars books in our mini library. Movies. Puzzles. Toys. We love it!

So, of course, we had to make another Star Wars craft.

My son still is playing with the Millennium Falcon we made almost a year ago. So, he took pretty great care of it.  When I asked him what we should make, he said an X Wing Fighter.

I had to use some brain activity for this one. But, I came up with a simple solution. All you need is a cardboard tube, jumbo craft sticks, paint and a knife. BAM! X Wing Fighter.

Read on for the instructions and a FREE Star Wars Coloring Page.
