Best tips for the perfect family stay-cation

The Summer of 2020 is going to be very different for many. Very limited, to no travel for family vacations. So how do we entertain our family from the comfort of our back yards and plan the best stay-cations with lots of laughs and lifelong bonding?

Here are some ideas to plan the best stay-cation for 2020 for you and your family.

As a young child, camping has always been a favorite of mine. I loved playing games outside all day, and cooking mountain pies and smores over the fire. Even sleeping in a tent in my back yard with my siblings and cousins is a lifelong memory of mine. There is something about the sound of crickets and the smell of a campfire that really makes you appreciate the world.

Some fun and great backyard activities that have always been a big hit for daytime fun. Corn hole or horse shore tournaments, lawn twister and on hot day grab a bag of balloons fill with water and you have water balloon dodge ball. It’s great teamwork and amazing exercise.

When the sun is setting, and bellies are grumbling, we want to keep the outdoor camping experience as fun and comforting as possible. Campfires are great to cook over, like roasting hot dogs. Simple and very easy clean makes it and easy quick dinner. Campfires are great way to relax, chilling to some amazing tunes and sharing amazing stories with the family.

What happens when it rains, or the weather is not cooperating? Board games and cards are a great way to bring the fam together on a bored raining day. Board games and card games are very inexpensive you can purchase them online new or used. Favorite board and card games to keep you entertained for hours, the classic Monopoly, Mad Gab and Uno, Apples to Apples and Pictionary are super fun games to keep the laughs loud while exercising your brain.

Do not forget there is a ton of things to explore in your hometown and some are even free. Your local community pages will have listing for free events like free yoga in the park, free concerts, food truck events, etc. By putting a little bit of time, researching your town, you may find the that your home could be a new adventure for you to have the best stay-cation to create lifelong memories you and your family will cherish for years down the road.
