Try to check off as many of these things to do with your teens before they’re grown!
Raising a teen isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s hard stage that seems to have the highest of highs and the lowest of lows.
Teenagers are amazing people, just trying their best to navigate the world around them. They’ll make mistakes and drive you crazy along the way.
But it’s our job to help them navigate this journey and make sure they feel loved and supported along the way.
One easy way to ensure our teens feel supported is by spending time with them, building a relationship, while creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Today, I’m sharing my personal list to things to do with your teens before they’re grown.

Go hiking
Create some artwork (We love painting together. This is our favorite online tutorials but you can also find some good ones here.)
Go camping
