Back To School Bucket List

  Credit: Olia Danilevich - Pexels School is just around the corner and a lot of us are wondering how summer flew by so quickly. Make the most of these last few weeks of free time with this Back to School Bucket List for you and your family!   Last minute camping trip: One of the best things about summer is the warm nights perfect for camping. A last minute camping trip doesn’t need to be a challenging endeavor, all it takes is packing your car with the essentials (tent, sleeping bag, food, ect) and choosing a campsite near Boise. You can even make it a backyard camping trip for a fun and easy experience at home!

It is full of hands-on science activities that help kids understand complex concepts while having fun. Exhibits are constantly changing and always built to nurture curiosity in children. Although admissions are on the pricier side ($19.50 for children and $27.50 for adults), there are endless exhibits and experiments for your child to partake in.

Whether you are shopping for local and fresh produce, pasta, milks, breads, jams, and other food items, or just grabbing breakfast and a coffee, the farmers market is an awesome place to wander around and support local businesses.

Head down to a public pool (take a look at this blog to see all the public pools in Boise), or have a “beach” day at Quinn’s pond to enjoy the last of outdoor swimming this summer.

Although you will still likely have to avoid the midday heat, head out in the morning or evening and take on one of these awesome Boise hikes!                                                                                                Photo by Kaija Zoller
