Summer Bucket List: Our 2012 List

Sharing is caring!

I gave you tips on creating your own summer bucket list, found inspiration for displaying the list, and even provided a mega-list of 200 ideas for your bucket list.

Now, it’s time to share our 2012 Summer Bucket List.

We kept it simple and only have 20 things on the list. Our time may or may not be limited, so I wanted a very doable sized list.

Plus, if we finish too quickly, I do have 200 more ideas we could use!

I decided not to make a large display for our wall. We’re currently trying to sell our house, so that wasn’t a realistic option for us.

Instead, I made a pretty booklet. I wrote each activity on a separate index card and illustrated it with simple pictures to help my non-readers know what the activities are.

I then punched a hole in the upper corner and secured the cards together with a binder clip. I added a few pony beads to the ring for a fun touch.

Your bucket list doesn’t have to be complicated or even long. Just remember, it’s all for fun!
