Fourth of July is here and everyone is excited to celebrate this weekend with freedom and bliss. We have in here some ridiculously awesome 'staycation' ideas that you guys can surely enjoy - great bonding time with the family.

Going outdoors is always FUN.

1. Go fishing. Tag the kids along, bring something to eat, drink and share. Don't forget those must-haves in your basic fishing tackle box such as the rod, baits, hooks, bobbers, lures, pliers, and of course, the first aid kit!

2. Taking the kids to family picnics at the park can be a great idea. Ready your picnic hampers and fill them with lots of refreshing drinks, yummy food, fruits, sandwiches, and some sweet delights. The family can really enjoy these goodies all day long. 

4. Visit a local exhibit or museum. This educational family tour lets the family explore science, arts and culture, discover some innovations, and virtually travel to historical places and era. Learning and exploring new things together can make your family bonding a whole lot better.

Ultimate Staycation Ideas for the 'Home Buddies'

5.  It's perfectly fine to stay in bed all day, especially on a weekend. You can take a nap, have pillow fights, eat all you want, tell stories, and play all day long - lots of things to do at no extra cost.

6. Host a BBQ Party. Set up a barbecue party in your backyard - perfect time to chitchat, pig out, and chillax! Here's a tip: Amazing grilling and food hacks are kept here... you'd surely wish that you've known these tricks sooner.

7. Potluck Party. Invite granny, aunts, uncles, and cousins over to your place and ask them to bring something to share with everyone. This not only saves you much time and money but most importantly, you've got a variety of delicious gourmets on the table. Yum!

8. Play with your kids. Parents can be the best playmates. Have some board and video games, read good books, set up an indoor camp or a play pen, play 'charades', memory games, and a lot more - do all these and be merry!

9. Movie Marathon. Sometimes being a couch potato does the weekend magic. Watch movies, have some cheesy popcorns and chips, laugh together, and enjoy!

10. Celebrate with the crowd. Go outside, be proud, and enjoy freedom! Happy Independence Day, America! 

The Fourth of July is really cool! Nothing beats spending quality time with our loved ones on a holiday.
