The kids are on summer break (awesome!), but what can you do and where can you take them to keep them busy? I'm here to help! I've scoured San Diego to find some places to take them.

San Diego Beaches
Parking lots are back open to 100% capacity. Make sure you bring a face covering and keep your social distance as you enjoy "passive activites" with the kids.
At-Home Projects:
@BusyToddler on Instagram has a lot of fun proects to do with the kids, like making bread in a bag or making name art.
Virtual Camps
Whether you're looking for STEM- focused camps to DIY virtual camps to writing camps or sports camps, here's a great list of virtual camps for the kids.
Backyard Camping!
Pitch a tent, grab the sleeping bags, make some s'mores, and sleep under the stars in your backyard!
Outdoor Movie Night
Don't have a pop-up screen? Grab a white sheet! This is a favorite activity for my family and I.
Grow a Garden
Start a vegetable garden with the kids! They'll be amazed to see their plants grow right before their eyes. Plus, you'll have some yummy veggies to use for your home cooked meals.
