A small bucket of water and an old paintbrush. You would be amazed at how long two simple items can keep children occupied. For those summer days when you don’t feel like messing with swimming suits or messy activities, this is a perfect go-to activity. Encourage them to use the water to paint the driveway, brick walls, or the patio. You can add an educational twist by painting letters and numbers or, better yet, just let their creativity guide them.
The great outdoors is their canvas, no clean-up required.
