Mark your calendar for the Annual Dog Show at Four Corners on Tuesday, June 13th from 7 – 8pm. Yes, kids I have printed these summer ideas before, but they are tried and true and fun to play. Fun and Different ideas for this Summer: – Fruit picking at a local orchard – Go to a drive-in movie – Make popsicles from your favorite drink – Tour a cave (nice and cool too) – Bike River Des Peres, Grant’s Trail or Katy Trail – Explore a park and playground you have never visited before – Splash around City Garden and it’s water park – Catch a movie or relax with a good book at the library Top Summer Roadtrip games: 1. License Plate Game – try to find all 50 states 2. Backseat BINGO – fun and free printable copies online 3. ABC Game – find letters of the alphabet based on signs, license plates, etc. 4. Picnic Game – “I’m going on a picnic and I will bring . . . .” it goes around the car with each person bringing something different BUT you have to memorize and name what everyone else is bringing first to make sure there are not duplicates. 5. 20 Questions – guess the item based only ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answers Question for September Kids Corner: Tell us about your summer. Favorite adventure in St. Louis? Where did you go on vacation? Would you recommend it to other kids?
