Summer is here, and it's the perfect season to get kids outdoors and away from screens. With Sunjoy’s versatile outdoor structures, you can turn your backyard into a lively and engaging playground, brimming with fun and adventure. Let’s explore six exciting backyard activities that will keep your kids entertained all summer long:

1. Enchanting Outdoor Movie Nights

Turn your backyard into a cinematic wonderland with a Sunjoy gazebo. Hang a white sheet or use a portable screen and project family favorites under the stars. Create a cozy atmosphere with comfortable seating, popcorn, and blankets. The hard top gazebo ensures a comfortable viewing experience regardless of weather.

2. Creative Arts and Crafts Haven

Ignite your child’s creativity with a crafting station under a Sunjoy backyard gazebo. Stock up on paints, markers, glue, and recycled materials for endless crafting possibilities. The large gazebo provides a shaded, designated space for messy projects, making cleanup a breeze. Encourage your kids to create garden decorations, toys, or painted rocks.

3. Backyard Camping Adventures

Set up an exciting campsite with tents and sleeping bags under a Sunjoy gazebo or carport. Kids will love the thrill of camping right at home. Add a grill for cooking classic camping treats like hot dogs and s’mores. The gazebo for grill or carport offers shelter, ensuring dry and comfortable camping under the night sky.

4. Refreshing Water Play Station

Beat the summer heat with a water play area. Arrange a small pool, sprinklers, pool canopy or water balloons under the shade of a Sunjoy pergola. This setup keeps kids cool and entertained for hours. Introduce water games and challenges for added excitement. The pergola provides a perfect spot for parents to relax while keeping an eye on the fun.

5. Fun Outdoor Cooking Classes

Make mealtime an adventure with outdoor cooking sessions using a Sunjoy outdoor kitchen or grill. Teach your kids to prepare simple, kid-friendly dishes like grilled pizzas, kabobs, or homemade burgers. This hands-on experience is a fantastic way to bond and enjoy delicious meals together. The outdoor kitchen becomes a centerpiece for family gatherings, creating lasting memories.

6. Engaging Nature Exploration and Gardening

Cultivate a love for nature by setting up a small garden under the partial shade of a Sunjoy gazebo. Teach your kids to plant seeds, water plants, and care for their garden. This activity is not only fun but also educational, teaching responsibility and environmental awareness. The pergola is perfect for supporting climbing plants, adding beauty and charm to your backyard.
