How to Make the Most of Your Summer Vacation (for Teens)
Steps
1
Clean your room. Throw/put away anything you don't need this season. Homework, bulky Christmas sweaters, etc. Clear out your clutter for a fresh, clean start this summer.
2
Get outside! You've stayed inside all winter, get out your bike and go for a nice, long ride. Grab a friend or two and go hiking. Go to the beach, lake, ocean for an afternoon of swimming and tanning. Go jogging or even just for a walk in the park or on the side walk. Walk your dog (or your neighbor's dog if you don't own a dog yourself). Go rollerblading! It's great exercise and fun. Use your imagination!

Go camping.
Go camping. Gather some friends and go set up a tent somewhere. A yard, open field (if you're allowed), or a camp site are great places to set up camp. Make sure you have the necessary equipment so you're not stranded in the rain wearing shorts and sandals with nothing to do. Try to set up camp by a lake for a lovely view and easy access to swimming grounds! Camping and swimming. What's not to love?
4
Make a scrapbook of the summer. Buy several disposable cameras in the beginning of summer and carry them around with you. When you go out with your friends, take a few snapshots. Buy some cheap stickers, glue sticks, glitter, etc and have fun.
5
Go to the mall. The mall is crowded with teens during summer. It's a great way to make new friends too. Hang out around the mall with your friends. Enjoy yourself even if you don't have enough money to buy anything.
6
Stay indoors once in a while and be alone. Take a nice bath, put on some pajamas, and curl up on the couch with a great book and a snack. Rent a movie or two and spend some time with yourself.
7
Buy a kiddy pool.
Buy a kiddy pool. Sure it's meant for toddlers and children, but it can be great fun with a few of your pals. Slather on the sunblock, pop on your shades, crank up your music and lounge in the pool. It's a fairly cheap way to stay cool in the sun.
8
Buy, borrow, or rent a Slip N Slide.
Buy, borrow, or rent a Slip N Slide. Remember these? They're yellow things you spread on the lawn and spray with the hose. It's a great way to entertain you and your friends. Fire up the hose and go sliding. Don't forget to take pictures!
9
Play in the water.
Play in the water. Go get out the hose or the sprinkler if you don't have access to a lake, river, or pool. Who says you can't be 10 again?

Invite some friends over and have an overnighter. Grab your favourite drinks, snacks, movies, video games, magazines, and books to have a night full of fun.

Use your imagination and waste some time! Pretend that you're in a magical world and that you can do anything you want to do there!.
