50 Things for Kids to Do (That don't involve a screen)

This is a departure from my usual blog.  I thought maybe this could help out the moms of the world:

Oh my head. Only 2 weeks into summer vacation and the kids are saying they have "nothing to do". I grabbed a paper and pen and wrote out a list of 50 things to do (that don't involve a screen). It took me 2 minutes. I handed it to them and said, "Do this. And if you don't like anything on this list, make up your own!"

Here is my list:
1. read a book (of course this had to be number 1!)
2. ride your bike
3. do a puzzle
