Kick off Summer with a Family Bucket List! One of our favorite ways to start the season is by creating a big, colorful summer bucket list with our kids. It’s the perfect way to get everyone excited and make sure your summer is packed with fun.

If you’re in or near Bloomington, IL, here are 10 must-do family adventures to add to your list (let us know in the comments if you have other ideas or suggestions)!

1. Arcade House – Where retro fun meets family bonding!
2. Miller Park Zoo – A sweet spot for little animal lovers
3. Grady’s Family Fun Park – Mini golf, go-karts, rides
4. Children’s Discovery Museum – Brain-boosting fun
5. Constitution Trail – For bike rides or peaceful walks
6. Splash Pad at Tipton Park – Cool down with giggles
7. Rader Family Farms (seasonal)
8. Normal Theater – Catch a family flick
