Summer has arrived. This 25-page summer activity pack is perfect for kids of all ages to enjoy on hot summer days and long summer road trips. Scroll down to get your copy of these free printables for kids.

I want to feel the sand in my toes. I want to hear the waves crashing on the shore. I want to smell the salty ocean air. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t have a little summer-themed learning fun this summer!

So, we will have to settle for watching summer-themed movies like Teen Beach Movie and Judy Moody and the Not So Bummer Summer, and decorating our house with seashells and starfish that we’ve collected or purchased on past trips to the beach. We’ll fill our book basket with ocean-themed books, and pretend we’re relaxing on the beach.

Summer Activity Pack

If your kids are bored this summer and looking for something to do, why not print out some fun summer-themed activity pages for them to work on? I’ve created a new summer freebie just for them! Some of the pages are just plain fun. Some sneak in a little learning, too.

Summer is Here! – Pick blueberries, see a caterpillar grow from an egg to a butterfly, or take a trip to the lake or beach with your family. Peek under rocks, look up in the trees, dive into the water–there is so much to learn and so much to discover together when you read Summer is Here!I See Summer – Follow Dad, Grandma, and other family members as they pick and count. Hidden numbers on every page give readers an opportunity to search and learn.

Summertime in the Big Woods – The winter is finally over, and now it is summertime. Laura and Mary are busy all day helping Ma in the garden and playing outside.
