    My kids and I will be spending the summer swimming with friends and hopefully lots of time at our camp in the mountains.

    My son is going to a new camp this summer, with lots of fun activities planned! It works out well because I work f/t. His best friend will be in the same camp. On the weekends, however, we will be heading to Island Beach State Park, since I have a pass and we live @ the Jersey Shore. Can’t wait!

  108. Amber says:

  120. Katy says:

    My little guy will be exploring our own backyard. He’s going to be my garden helper and the neighborhood dardevil as he rides down the sloped driveway on his little car!! I’m sure the zoo, aquarium and children’s museum will break up all that fun too!

  121. Roslyn Griffin says:

    We have 5 boys! My oldest is just turning 15, so he’ll have a few free days a week for free time w/friends..movies and such. We purchase zoo and waterpark memberships ahead of time, so we’ll be alternating those trips with daily park walks, family visits, swimming, fishing, and our yearly shore trip. My younger boys range from 2-6..so the idea is to have something for everybody to do! The less I keep them in the house..the less I have to clean up!! A FREE, cozy pair of Stride Rite sandals for one of my boys would be greatly appreciated!!

  122. nicole says:

    I am not quite sure what this summer will hold for our family . Having now a addition to our family, Tyler ( 1yrs ) and Anthony (3yrs) should be interesting. We are going to attempt to do one weekend of camping see how that goes first lol. But Stride Rite shoes are the best my older boy loves his shoes from stride rite..

  123. Stephanie M says:

    This vacation my oldest is going to summer camp with the boyscouts and my 2 youngest will take swimming lessons and also will get to try horseback riding thanks to a groupon deal :))) We will also go to Dorney Park as we got a deal with the boyscout troop for 20$ per person. Trying to budget all the fun we can get !! Lots of visit to the library as they have plenty of fun activities.

  129. Stephanie says:

    We are going to be staying at home, and enjoying summer and then going to see my family (we haven’t seen them since Christmas):) Thanks so much for a great giveaway and thank you to Stride Rite too!

Besides day trips, we will also be taking a trip to St. Louis and the Ozarks to see my family and a wonderful trip to Wildwood Crest with my in-laws. All of this wouldn’t be possible without all of the saving I do with the help of this wonderful website!! Thank you!

This summer he is headed to day camp with football practice most evenings, weekend travel, loads of birthday parties, and outdoor play time. He tells me that exercise if important especially when he wants to run through the outdoor fountain at the local grocery store (after he eats his free cookie). Summer fun.
