Editor's Letter
It’s here! My most favorite month of the year! June, that delightful first full month without school obligations and the month farthest away from the start of the new school year. It brings tons of outdoor fun and lazy, hazy, summer days. Oh, if only we could have June all year long! I know—not everyone loves summer as much as I do (and there’s something wrong with those people…kidding, totally joking!), but you have to admit, the start of a new season is always a sweet time.
What’s on your summer to-do list? Ours includes lots of time at the pool (we have a lifeguard in our home this year), lots of ice cream and so many concerts. To help you make the most of this summer, we’ve put together a list of 40 great ideas for summer fun in Kansas City that are FREE! We also focus on youth sports in June and have great tips on life lessons that kids can learn from athletics.
In addition, we take time out to celebrate dads in June. My dad was one of a kind, and I miss him dearly. One of his sayings for which he was famous was, “This, too, shall pass.” I have found myself repeating that phrase frequently during my parenting journey. Be sure to shower all the dads in your life with love on their special day!
Happy summer and happy Father’s Day, Kansas City!
