Easy Multi-Aged Activities for Summer

Easy Multi-Aged Activities for Summer
 
 Finally, this Summer my kids are best buddies and it’s fun for me to find multi-aged activities that appeal to BOTH of them!
 
Here are three of our top faves this summer:
 
multi-aged activities
 
 
We love to do science experiments.  One that always elicits excitement is baking soda and vinegar, which I color with food dye.
 
I pour a box of baking soda into a disposable pan (all from the Dollar Tree) and the clean-up is a breeze.
 
multi-aged activities
 
 
Big sis helps little bro fill his eye dropper and they have so much fun squealing over the “volcanoes.”
 
multi-aged activities
 
 
You can never go wrong with Dot Stampers!  We ALWAYS grab a new box on birthdays, so we have glitter, shimmer, neon…  All sorts of fun varieties!  Again, the big one can help the little one with the lids (and she usually schools him in colors, too!).
 
multi-aged activities
 
 
My two could do this one for hours!  I give M a roll of masking tape or washi tape and she tears off strips, placing them on a smooth surface (washing machine, fridge, bricks fireplace, hardwood floor).  G’s job is to peel them off and make a big tape ball!  They LOVE this!
 
So with a little extra thought, there are a TON of activities that your multi-aged tots can enjoy this summer!
