Summertime Events in Florida!

Summer is a time you look back on and think about all the fun memories made with your family and loved ones. With kids on summer break, now is the perfect time to get outdoors and spend some quality time together making lasting memories.  This is not only important for a child’s development but for your everyday health as well. Whether its painting with elephants or going to watch a classic movie with a group, it’s important to take a break, enjoy, and relax. Here are some Summer time events happening here in Florida for you, your family and loved ones to attend. We hope some of these can be a part of your summer family plans. Have fun and stay safe!
