Adults and children love it equally: summer. No wonder, as it holds many moments of happiness for both young and old. Finally feeling the sun on your skin again or burying your little feet deep in the sand. Children already have endless things to discover in summer. But it’s especially wonderful when adults and children experience something together. The warm temperatures offer countless possibilities here as well. We have put together some creative summer leisure ideas for families. 

Excursion options for families in summer

When mom and dad plan a trip for the weekend, sparkling children's eyes are guaranteed. Whether parents want to plan something bigger or just a small outing, we have some inspiration for every age:
  • Climbing park / climbing forest
  • Zoo visit / wildlife park
  • Amusement park with roller coasters & more
  • Summer toboggan run
  • Outdoor mini golf
  • Paddle boating / tubing on the lake
  • Adventure pools
  • Adventure playgrounds
  • Strawberry picking

Low-budget leisure ideas for families

Not every weekend can families afford a visit to an amusement park or climbing park. But in summer, there are also plenty of low-budget leisure ideas for families. For example, mom and dad can plan a small bike tour. Maybe it leads to the next favorite playground? For a cool refreshment, a trip to a nearby bathing lake is ideal. Here, children can splash around while parents enjoy the sun. A short hike followed by a picnic is also a great summer option. Homemade snacks in the sunshine are a treat for every family member.

Leisure ideas for families in their own garden

In summer, it doesn’t always have to be an outing. The family’s own garden also offers opportunities to implement leisure ideas. Here’s a special tip: a barbecue evening followed by camping in the garden. Children love the atmosphere when they get to help mom prepare the salad while dad fires up the grill. For the little ones, the sense of togetherness is something very special. While the family enjoys their meal outdoors, the grill reminds them of unforgettable happy moments in summer. A special highlight: afterwards, the whole family spends the night under the open starry sky. Is there a fire pit? Then marshmallows or stick bread can be prepared. The perfect summer evening for families in their own garden.
