Get realistic about your summer bucket list items

Summer is a time for running outside and making the most of the good weather, especially in places that have 4 seasons of mostly wind, rain, and snow.

So by now, people have had it with the idea of staying in and forfeiting our fun. But we have to think of others and the greater good. How can we do both? How can we have fun and stay safe?

Here are some ideas for the worst-case scenario where teenagers of 2020 will need to don their superhero suits as they still have fun while practicing maximum caution and helping to save the world.

How do you keep your summer bucket list for teens safe and fun?

These summer activities can be done with your family with no problem. But you might even be able to add good friends to the mix, with the utmost of caution and social distancing, as necessary. Awkward, but we can do it.

If you are meeting up with friends, have their family drive them as necessary, keep 6+ feet apart (conversations can still be had), and at least you will still be able to see them, joke around together, and laugh.

If you are doing these things with immediate family members you live with you can have at it. You already are spreading germs to each other indoors, you might as well have some fun while you’re at it.

Now start planning for some fun in the sun this summer with your Summer Bucket List for Teens!
