End of School Year Activities

Here are some fun activities for the end of the school year that children can enjoy with their bubbies:

Picnic or Barbecue: Arrange a picnic or barbecue in a park or backyard. Kids can play outdoor games and enjoy a potluck of their favorite foods.
Talent Show: Host a talent show where children can showcase their skills and talents. This can be a great way to celebrate the end of the year and give students a chance to show off their creativity.
Scavenger Hunt: Organize a scavenger hunt around the school or local area. Kids can work in teams to complete challenges and find clues.
Field Day: Set up a field day with activities like relay races, tug-of-war, and obstacle courses. This can be a fun way to get kids active and burn off some energy.
Movie Day: Host a movie day where kids can relax and watch their favorite films. Provide snacks and drinks to make it extra special.
Arts and Crafts: Set up an arts and crafts station where kids can create end-of-the-year projects. This can be a fun way to get creative and remember the school year.
Water Day: Set up water activities like slip-and-slides, water balloon tosses, and sprinklers. Kids can cool off and have fun in the sun.

Remember to take into account any health and safety guidelines that may be in place in your area.

About the Author: Yvonne Wonder

As the founder and managing director of Destination Sitters, LLC, a national hotel and event babysitting service, and the mother of two children, I strongly believe that family comes first. I personally needed babysitting when I moved to San Diego 14 years ago. Like most parents, I assumed there were standards for temporary babysitting; in reality, there are no state standards or licensing requirements for temporary babysitting. The idea for Destination Sitters was born! I wanted to Give Parents Peace of Mind® when traveling with their children, so I created strict screening requirements for the sitters we refer. There is nothing like the peace of mind that comes from getting great professional help to care for your children, especially when traveling away from home. I and my partners, along with our office staff, have that one goal in mind with everything we do. Through the years of working with children, I have been inspired to write three books, and this blog for parents’ and children’s wellbeing. I believe the best way to teach a child is leading by example, with love, honesty, integrity, compassion, perseverance, and personal responsibility. Learning these values and teaching children that all women and men are equal will encourage them to dream big to be anything they want to be! An entrepreneur for over 35 years, I previously spent years running a construction and design company with two offices in California and built million-dollar estates and remodeled existing ones. For three and half years, I was one of the primary designers on HGTV’s Curb Appeal. I have also been published in books, magazines and newspapers, and have been a featured designer in multiple showcase houses.
