Yay! Summer is here! Summer isn’t my favorite season, even though my birthday is on the solstice, but I sure do love what it has to offer! The days are longer, outdoor activities are a dime a dozen, and people are in happier moods because of all that sunlight and Vitamin D!
I love making lists of ways to celebrate things, and the seasonal changes are no different! I made you a list of one hundred things to add to your Summer To Do List, and a printable (colorful) PDF with my own ridiculous illustrations on it. You can download that for free below.

Sounds awesome. You’re welcome to make your own list! There are plenty of other bucket lists out there. It might be a good idea of for people to have things to do without people especially during a pandemic. 🙂
