Things to do for Free (or cheap) this Summer

First off, I need to say sorry for slacking a bit the past week. My week has been crazy busy and I haven't had time to write. Summer can be pretty cool sometimes (other than it being a billion degrees here in Texas lately), but you can still make the most of it! Here's a list of fun things you can do this summer by yourself, or with someone else! :)

#1: Go Swimming!

There are so many different places to go and swim during the summer, most of which are relatively cheap (obviously if you go to someplace like Schlitterbahn's it's not super cheap, but you get the idea ;)) We love going to different lakes in our area, and those are pretty cheap most of the time. We also have a free public pool near us.

#2: Read a Good Book

(or two, or three..) It is so much fun to just sit down and read with a cup of coffee or tea. (or even a smoothie during the summer :)) Summer Reading List for Teens 2018 (Credit to PureFlix.com) I love the Veritas Project by Frank Peretti!

#3: Try Out a New Hobby

I love stuff like crocheting or crafting. You could also try something like scrapbooking or knitting. How to Crochet (Credit to Craftsy.com)

#4: Paint Your Nails

What girl doesn't love pampering herself? Try out a new shade of polish or a cool DIY Nail Art design that you haven't tried before! The Glitter Gradient Manicure (makeup.com)

#5: Make Homemade Ice Cream

The cool thing about making your own Ice Cream is that you can personalize it and use whatever flavors you'd like! :) Homemade Ice Cream in A Baggie (2littlehooligans.com)

#6: See A Movie

Who doesn't like watching movies? I love so many different movies. Rent one that you've never seen before, watch one that you have seen before and absolutely love, or go the theater and see one there!

#7: Play in the Sprinkler

It doesn't matter how old you are, it's still fun to play in the sprinkler!

#8: Bake Some Cookies

Baking never gets old in my opinion. This is a cool activity to do by yourself or with someone else!

#9: Plant Flowers

A little color never hurt anybody!

#10: Try Drawing or Painting

Drawing and Painting are so relaxing and fun for me (even though I'm not that good at it..) But who cares? I don't! :) Look on Pinterest for some awesome ideas!

Have fun and wear lots of sunscreen!

Goodbye for now,

Kyra :)
