The summer holidays are round the corner. Two months can be a drag for your kids if you don't plan it out well. Listed below are a few fun things you can do with your kids this summer and spend quality time with them:

Make cards

Upcoming birthdays, Mother's day or Teacher's day cards can be made in advance. Try teaching your kids how to make cards more creatively and make a stack of these cards for the upcoming year this summer.

Music

If you have knowledge of a musical instrument, teach your kids a little to see their interests. In case you do not possess any knowledge in music, enrol them in some music classes to see which instrument they fancy.

Art

Paper machete and other such creative activities will keep your child busy and will be fun to do as well. You can search online for such activities.

Painting

Paint something like a window grill, a door or a stool in the house with your kids. Teach them how to use a paintbrush or a spray tool.

Take trips
