Summer is the perfect time for families to bond and create lasting memories through fun and engaging activities. Whether you're looking to enjoy the great outdoors, explore new places, or simply spend quality time together at home, there are countless options to suit every interest and age group.
As we “step” into the summer season, we can also step into the opportunity to reconnect as a family and enjoy the warm weather. Dive into our list of fun summer activities, inspired by the Original movie, “Stepping into Love,” that promises to bring joy, laughter, and unforgettable moments for the entire family.
In “Stepping into Love,” when a local art museum faces financial trouble, Claire, a conventional curator, works with avant-garde artist, Devan, to develop an unconventional exhibit and perhaps find love along the way.
Beach Day
Maybe you don’t live at the beach like Claire and Devan do, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a trip to one! Find a local watering hole or local beach and spend the day doing fun activities including swimming, building sandcastles, and playing beach volleyball.
Outdoor Movie Night
If Claire and Devan can set up a museum exhibit outside, why not also watch a movie outdoors? Set up a projector in your backyard and have an outdoor movie night. Spread out blankets and pillows and prepare some popcorn and snacks for a cozy evening under the stars! May we recommend watching “Stepping into Love,” or one of our other great family movies.

Bike Rides
Claire’s niece rides her scooter all around town. Claire loves to take her morning walk to work. Take family bike rides on local trails or around your neighborhood and find fun places to stop on the way. It's a great way to stay active and explore new places together.
Family Walks
Devan’s newest exhibit is all about learning how to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and experiencing the world from a different point of view. Take family walks around the neighborhood or on local trails and be attentive to your surroundings. You'll never know – maybe you’ll find something you never noticed before!
Visit a Museum
Since Claire is a curator, it was only natural we had to put visiting a museum on the list! Explore local museums, especially those with hands-on exhibits for children. It’s a great way to beat the summer heat and learn something new! Many museums offer summer programs and workshops.
Picnics
Have a picnic at a local park or even in your backyard. Pack a basket with sandwiches, fruits, and other snacks, and enjoy a meal in the fresh air.
Rollerblading
Claire and Devan rent skates in “Stepping into Love” to have fun and get their mind off work for a couple of hours. Teaching your children a new skill like rollerblading will help their reflexes, get them outside and get their eyes off screens, and keep them active! It’s a great activity to do altogether as the weather warms up! (And also, a great mode of transportation)!
Volunteer Together
Claire loves the volunteers that spend time at the museum and enjoys getting to know them. Volunteering not only helps the community but also makes us feel good about giving back! Find local volunteer opportunities suitable for families, including helping at a community garden, a food bank, or a beach cleanup.
