Ah summer… warm weather, long days, and fun in the sun. As a kid, summer days were spent running through the sprinkler, drawing with sidewalk chalk, and doing cannonballs at the pool. But who says having fun outside is just for kids? Check out our favourite ways to have fun outside as an adult!

Nothing says summer like a trip to the beach. Refresh your beach bag with essentials like Dock & Bay towels. These towels are quick-drying and easily pack away into a small pouch, making them perfect to take to the beach. Not to mention they come in lots of fun colours and designs. And of course, a beach day is not complete without cold drinks, so check out this stylish cooler bag from Sunnylife.  Fill it with refreshing cans of fan-favourite LaCroix sparkling water, available in new flavours like Limoncello and Hibiscus.

Looking for a new game to play outside? Go! Zone Smashball Game is a 4-player game that has been growing in popularity in the last few years. Two players work together to serve, pass, and spike the ball off the net, then the opposing team returns the hit. This game is quick to learn and fun to play. The net comes apart and fits into the travel bag, making it easy to bring along to the beach or park.

Spending the day at the pool? Why not float in style with fun floaties from Incredible Novelties. Choose a rainbow popsicle for a colorful place to lounge, or pick the lemon inner tube for a fun, fruity floatie. And speaking of the pool, don’t forget to stock up on your suncare essentials such as waterproof sunscreen and after sun care.

Nothing is better on a summer afternoon than a cold, refreshing popsicle. This summer, try making your own popsicles with this Zoku Pop Mold. Elevate the classic fruit juice popsicles with recipes like these boozy Strawberry Mojito Popsicles. Or if you’re an iced coffee lover, try these Mocha Cold Brew Pops.

Spending more time in the backyard this summer? Spice up your next BBQ night with fun games such as  Franklin Sports Backyard Foot Golf, a combination of soccer and golf, or Sunnylife Inflatable Summer Corn Hole for a fun twist on the backyard classic. And speaking of BBQ season, check out our selection of gourmet barbecue sauces and essential barbecue tools.
