Summer is more than half over. Cue the boredom.

Your kids have played every game they know, watched every episode of their go-to cartoon, and read every book in the house.

Their daily existence now consists mostly of throwing themselves onto the couch and declaring their boredom.

And there's still a full month left of summer.

The cure to summertime boredom?

Trust us. We know the drill. This end-of-summer "boredom blues" is exactly why we put our heads together and came up with a fabulous list of 50 truly easy things to keep kids entertained during their final weeks of break.

Go ahead. Print it out. Throw it on the refrigerator. Dare your kids to cross them off each day until they complete all 50. And maybe...no promises, but maybe...they'll get so carried away creating that you will get to read a book or (gasp!) take a shower all by yourself.

Dare to dream, parents. :)
