Home’s Cool: 10 Fun Summer Activities Kids Can Do at Home

It's summer vacay, so keep your kids away from the TV with these fun ideas that they can do at home. By Arlene Sanchez-Maslog

homeIf you are a parent (or a babysitting aunt or a kind cousin), you are probably wondering how to fill in the many long days of the kids’ summer vacation. Don’t be tempted to take them on an expensive out-of-town trip you can’t afford--or worse, lug them to the nearest mall. You don’t need to look far and wide to keep them busy. Your own home can be an exciting, fun place that can entertain them, teach them life lessons, and help you with the household chores.
