Summer Toddler Activities

On those rainy days bring summer inside with these summer toddler activities. Turn off the screens and have some fun with one of these wonderful ideas for your toddler.

I love simple and easy ideas that can get your toddler engaged. They are usually the messy ones but it’s summer and you can do it all outside if needed as long as the weather is cooperating.

We spend all of our time outdoors since our winters are so long. I know it can become a challenge to find something that will occupy your toddler for more than 5 minutes so here’s a wonderful list of places to get started.
