With summer vacations your normal routine certainly goes out the window. With this in mind we thought you could try and do some activities that are also far from usual, although they might get the neighbors wondering what on earth you’re up to! 

We’ve therefore looked to some European countries for a little inspiration and found a few fun activities the whole family can get involved in that will keep you all active, amused, and most importantly — unified. The added bonus is they’ll also keep your kids off their screens — check!

Most are variations on some unique sports that are still practiced in Europe today, and others will just guarantee a fun-filled afternoon, especially if you get those curious neighbors involved, too.
