I am sure we have all heard the term “bucket list” before, but in case you haven’t, a bucket list is a list of things you want to do by a certain time. Some people have one for their lifetime, while others make lists that are seasonal or even ones that are specific to a destination. I usually enjoy seeing other people’s bucket lists to get an idea of some things I would like to include in my own personal list.
So when my daughter and her best friend created bucket lists for their summer break, I thought it was such a great idea that I wanted to share it here!
My daughter was so proud of her list that it is currently hanging on the wall in her bedroom proudly displayed front and center! Will she get to cross off all of the items on her list? Probably not, but I would say a good portion of them are doable! And that’s the thing about a bucket list…I feel like you can dream small and dream big, and everything in between. Her list gives us something to look forward to and to aspire to make these ideas happen. I hope you are able to get some ideas from my daughter’s bucket list which you can adapt to fit your own family’s needs!
