1. BEST DIY ACTIVITIES & GAMES FOR KIDS TO ENJOY THIS SUMMER Playful Punge

2. WHY DIY ACTIVITIES MATTER FOR YOUR KIDS According to studies, kids today spend 4 to 7 hours a day on screens, which can harm their development. The National Institute of Health (NIH Government) warns that too much screen time may affect children’s social, emotional, and cognitive growth. DIY activities offer a fun, hands-on alternative. They boost memory, motor skills, problem- solving, and creativity. Plus, they reduce screen time and strengthen parent-child bonding. STEM DIY games are simple, affordable, and use everyday materials. Let’s explore some exciting DIY activities your kids can try this summer!

6. UNIQUE AND CREATIVE INDOOR GAMES 3. Recycled Materials Challenge Give kids old boxes, paper tubes, egg cartons, glue, and scissors. Then let them build something amazing—a bridge, tower, or robot! It’s a great way to teach basic engineering using recycled materials. 4. Kitchen Science: Volcano Eruption Mix baking soda, vinegar, dish soap, and food coloring in a small container or volcano model. Kids get to see a bubbly “lava” explosion while learning about chemical reactions in a safe, hands-on way. 5. Indoor Camping Weekends Set up a fort using blankets, sheets, and pillows.
