Summer Camp at Home Activities & Themes: Free Printable Planner

Can you believe that schools out and summer is just right around the corner? Not only is this is an exciting time for the kids, but it also means that there will be some downtime that you’re going to want to fill at home as well-especially after the spring we’ve had! When summer camp at home is going to happen, it’s important to be prepared for tons of great activities, too!

This summer, in particular, might be a challenge—after all the kids have already been stuck at home for the past few months, and many (if not most) summer camps are canceled or drastically changing their programming due to current restrictions and lots of unknowns about public health.

This FREE DIY Summer Camp Printable Planner is jam-packed full of awesome summer camp weekly themes that will keep the kids active and happy. Not only will this help keep boredom at bay, but it can actually make life easier by having some predictable activities and a plan to fill those long hours!

Be sure to scroll down to the bottom of the post to get your free packet of summer camp activities at home.

Summer Camp At Home

In no way do we mean you have to throw a full summer program filled with learning and activities all day every day during the summer. The idea of bringing summer camp activities to your backyard is abut taking the best parts of camp, and using them to engage, play and explore at home.

Once you have a solid plan in place, you can literally create your own summer camp with ease. The best part about having a summer camp at home is that it puts no pressure on you as the parent, at all.

Some activities you can easily set up for the kids and sit down on the couch and watch them have fun. And if you don’t feel like doing something, just don’t do it. It’s literally as simple as that.
