30 Free and Fun Things to Do This Summer | Board Games

Living in Montana for fifteen years meant outside fun in the summer. We only had three months of good weather, so we went to the lake, went to the park, and played in the yard.

    It is hot down here! I loved playing Clue as a kid. I dominated that game! And UNO. My kids now play that game and we like Phase 10 and Apples to Apples!
