Welcome to part two of our Summer Bucket List Series! If you missed the local guide to ALL the splash pads along the Wasatch Front, click here.
Looking for more ideas to keep your kids busy? Check our Pinterest page here.
Free Summer Movies In The Park Along The Wasatch Front. One of our favorite summer memories is throwing popcorn at each other and listening to the kids giggle as we sat on a blanket under the stars, watching movies in the local park with our neighbors. While you’re busy amassing your “summer bucket list,” be sure to slip in a couple of these little gems. The movies are all divided by location in a tidy sort of way..
Free Movie Night Suggestions:
- Bring your own lawnchairs, blankets, etc.
- A picnic basket is nice, most parks often have food vendors if you’re against the idea of schlepping your own.
- Kids will leap and run around, just make sure yours are doing it behind the viewers, rather than in front of the screen
- Don’t forget bug spray and a sweater!
