Have you always wanted to do this? Or have you done it?
Add it to your life list - a list of everything you want to do and have done.
Keep your bucket list on SuperViva for ongoing inspiration, help from others, and flexibility planning over time.
Learn more or start by adding this goal to your list!
The idea is for everything on the list to be inexpensive/free and fairly easy to do and include some kid friendly items. And believe it or not it's hard to do!!
