Looking for family fun this week? We have ideas for you! Here are five holidays and events happening July 27th-August 3rd, 2022:
1. Get outside!
First of all, it's still SUMMER! And there is no excuse to get your kids outside! Go for a hike, (see top 5 hikes in guides!) to a playground, splash in a creek, or simply play in your own backyard. Get out there and enjoy that summer sunshine!
2. Get lunch from a food truck
Say what? Support small businesses by buying a meal or a sweet treat from a local food truck in your town. We love food trucks because they are mostly locally owned labors of love.

3. Go paddling!
Get on the water for a peaceful paddle on Canoe Day. Take your own or rent a canoe!
4. Learn about Helen Keller!
Helen Keller was born on this day in 1880. Spend an hour or two at the library together researching and learning about this inspiring figure in American history.
5. Find out about our Oceans!
Kids love learning about the ocean, and this is a great month to do just that because it's National Ocean Month. We love this entertaining and educational BBC Earth documentary above. Better yet, get your kids to a beach, creek or lake and talk to them about what they can do to help take care of our environment, since that's the best way to protect our amazing oceans.
