Hee hee! I don't believe it either. I subscribed to this thread so I could see what others were doing.
But, I didn't post to it, because I don't know if you want to know what we have been doing! We have gorgeous weather and are spending most of our days outside in the yard, or out at a park or in the woods. For us the summertime is the "inside time," unless we are in the pool.
We also do lots of things that have already been posted. Particularly fun is washing dishes, playing w/cornstarch and water, making playdough, baking (keeps the house warm, too). We have an Easy Bake Oven and Katie loves to make little cakes in it if we're not up for a big baking session.
I don't think you can do this inside, but I get out some old paintbrushes and fill a pail with water. The kids can "paint" the house. They love this and will do it for quite a long time!
We are getting ready to prepare our garden, so we are reading about gardening in Florida. We have a tie-dye kit so that's on our list to do next week, once I get buckets (we'll do it outside).
I also love to use the wintertime to purge. We are doing massive decluttering, and Katie enjoys helping to decide which toys to keep and which to give away. She does like to give toys away and is happy to know they are going to kids who need them.
