Are you looking for some summer activities to keep your children happy and occupied? Do you try to continue the learning process throughout the summer to keep your child’s mind active?
Here is one way to make learning fun this summer…
If you are within driving distance to Toronto, why not take a day trip to the Ontario Science Centre? The Ontario Science Centre is a fun-filled place where you and your child(ren) can spend an entire day exploring and learning together. There is definitely learning to be done by both young and old.
Consider visiting @ontsciencectr with your children this summer!

I have no doubt that your child would be happy playing and learning in KidSpark, a section specifically created for children under the age of 8 years. However, there is so much more fun to be had throughout the entire Centre, including a Ripley Believe It or Not Exhibit!
“With this exhibition, we invite visitors to exercise their own curiosity to learn about the science that underlies and explains the seemingly inexplicable, and make Ripley’s passion for discovery their own.”
Dr. Maurice Bitran, CEO and Chief Science Officer, Ontario Science Centre.The exhibition runs daily until September 5, 2016 and is included with general admission.

My best tip to entertain the kids during the summer month is to get some water balloons, water squirts and let the kids get wet and have fun. Sidewalk chalk always works and I like to draw on the sidewalk and get the kids to try to squirt it away!

My tip is to make the normal fun 🙂 We created a map of our city, and marked all of the parks, libraries, and splash pads. Each day we pick a new destination. We also purchased a summer pass for a local trampoline parks.

my best tip would be to plan some fun days, do crafts and board games on day, a park visit the next, maybe an ice cream adventure, or a trip to the zoo

My tip is a simple one, buy a hose and a sprinkler! On hot days you can’t beat this simple cheap fun, my kids love it just like I did as a kid!
to keep kids busy – start saving crafty items months before and scan the internet for free local activities- such as the library.
