Summer of KidsPost: Camping and water fun
Avi Dabi, 6, and Riya Dabi, 12, of Houston, Texas, took KidsPost for a float in the pool. Kids from all over can take part in Summer of KidsPost this year by printing out a PDF of one of our pages. (Family photo)
KidsPost readers are still finding ways to enjoy summer vacation despite the coronavirus outbreak. Their plans may be simpler this year, but they are game to take KidsPost along and tell us what they’re up to.
Sophie Lankina, 10, of Alexandria, took KidsPost with her to Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park in Maryland, where she and her family stayed in a cabin at a campground.
Siblings Avi Dabi, 6, and Riya Dabi, 12, of Houston, Texas, took KidsPost along on a swim in a local pool to beat the summer heat. (We love your cute green float!)
Noah Barbano, 10, and his brother Jonathan, 6, of Miami, Florida, spent time with their grandparents on Chincoteague Island in Virginia. They had fun fishing and taking boat rides around the island.
We want to see where and how you are having fun this summer, so take KidsPost along and we’ll share your experiences with readers.
