Summer Fun in Orange County California

Water and Fun ideas: 

Summer Fun on a Budget in OC or Anywhere the sun is shining! 


1. Back yard water sprinklers! Easy, saves money (no gas costs), and kids dance and hop and run and get all their busy energy out. You don't need all the fancy water slip and slides and plastic pools (Though plastic pools are still fun too especially if you don't have a yard). Fun is as simple as sprinklers or a sprinkler attachment for your garden hose and it waters your lawn at the same time. Outside clean with swimsuits they can shampoo their hair with the garden hose and rinse clean and they are good to go back inside and get into cozy jameez.


Vista Hermosa Sports Park NEW! In San Clemente: Large Castle slides play area, sports areas, and aquatic swimming area- click here for pool fees and information!


Crown Valley Community Pool in Laguna Niguel - click here for pool fees and information.

2. Swimming pool fun! Community pools are great. Go early to avoid the crowds. Make sure the water is clear and not cloudy, otherwise well you know, the water is not clean :). Where sunblock and reapply as needed.

3. Beach fun! Sunblock needed or you will look like an overcooked salmon out of water. Natural sunblock is a good choice better for your health and the environment. Reapply a few times during the day or after getting out of the water. During the hours 10am-12 noon the sun is hottest and sunburns can occur easily. Get a little sun before sunblock first to get a good stuff dose of natural vitamin D.

5. Pack enough favorite water and sand tolerable toys for your kids as well as at least 2 buckets and 2 hand shovels or enough to share. Pack what you and your kids can carry only. Kids can where their beach towels around the shoulders and carry a toy basket or bucket to help or their size backpack.

6. Picnic: Outdoor fun: Food and drinks. Pack healthy protein foods, fruit and veggies that are heat tolerable like sandwiches -hold the mayo-, carrots, grapes, uncut fruit. Also, lots of juice and water to drink. Store with ice in an ice chest or a bag with ice packs. A great way to end the day: Stop at the snack bar for a cool treat or your favorite ice cream place after the fun.

7. Plan an outdoor fun sunny bbq day and combine fun outdoor activities for a family or friends gathering this can be great for any meal of the day.
