9. Go to a car show
Summer is the time for car shows to shine. From meets down the street at a park, to well-organized events at convention centers, car shows introduce children to machines they’ve never seen. If they’ve seen Cars, the movies, they’ll probably want to see a car show.

Along with exercise, kids can never have too much reading, especially in summer. You may have grown up with Highlights magazines. Remember Goofus and Gallant? Well, Highlights is still around and better than ever — they encourage fun with a purpose. But any reading is good. Try reading with your child as much as possible. And have you visited your local library lately? That’s a great place to pass the summer.
7. Metal detecting and treasure hunting

This can be done at a nearby park or recreation area if local authorities allow it. Look for an electronics store that sells metal detecting equipment, including beginner gear. “Coin shooting” is what most metal detectorists do. Children can help by digging up the target that the adult homes in on with a metal detector. A partner helps tremendously in this hobby, even if they’re young. Salt a specific area in a park with a few handfuls of coins the night before you go visit with a youngster. You don’t want the child to experience getting skunked the first time out.
6. Miniature golf

Bowling is another great way to have fun with your kids this summer. A lot has changed in the last few years. Scoring is automatic and there are gutter guards are available for young kids. These guards keep a ball in the middle of the lane, leaving a better chance of striking something. Loud music, laser lights, and sometimes even fog dress up bowling lanes at certain hours. This period is called by many names, including Midnight Bowling and Cosmic Bowling. Ask your bowling center when they put on these fun events.
