Hey guys! The sun is out + summer is here! Can you believe it?! We're excited to have the boys home from school, but with that means food needs prepping + summer routines must be made! This week, on my YouTube Channel, I shared a Summer Homemaking + Prep video! Over the summer break, we usually run into problems with food prep, boredom, and routines (or lack there of)! So, in the video this week, I shared some healthy on-the-go food prep and freezer meal ideas (including a mason jar food prep hack!), an "I'm Bored" jar with plenty summer activities, and a summer routine board for us to keep us on track throughout the next few months!

These freezer meals will save the day during the busy summer months, and I'm so happy to see our fridge stocked with healthy choices for the family!
In this week's video, I created a list of activities for my kids - and I thought I'd share it with you guys too! I included a blank printable if you would prefer that as well. Feel free to download + print for your own use! I'm curious, what are your kids' favorite summer activities?
When do your kids get out for summer vacation? What are your plans this summer - are you travelling, enjoying where you live, or both?? Let me know how you prep for summer + if you tried any of the recipes above!
Have a great week!
Xoxo, Amanda

Such a helpful post for me! As a working mom of two kids, balancing a busy job in Dubai, summers can get really hectic with the kids at home and daily routines to manage. I really loved your ideas, especially the I’m bored jar, it’s such a simple way to keep the kids engaged without me constantly having to come up with activities. I like how your routine board keeps everything organized but still flexible. Thanks for sharing these practical tips, it really makes summer feel a lot more manageable.
