Summer is just a week away for our family. I love lazy summer days where I can sleep in and spend the day just reading. Since my husband and I are both teachers we get to enjoy quality family time together.
This summer I am determined to make an Intentional Summer for our whole family. Of course, I want us to have a few FUN lazy days, but I also do not to waste our summer doing nothing of value.
This summer our family will each pick (3) individual goals we want to accomplish in an 8 week period.
- A Spiritual Goal
- An Educational Goal
- A Personal Goal
I have created these FREE family Printables to help each of us to keep track of our goals. Each of us will have a week to diligently think and pray about what we want to accomplish this summer. For example, one year my son decided he wants to learn how to ride his bike without training wheels.
We all will gather together one evening to discuss our goals and determine how we can encourage one another. We will pick one evening a week during supper to discuss our progress. It’s so imperative that we support one another in our journeys. It’s a priority to me as a mom of many that my children learn to encourage and bear one another burdens.
At the end of the 8 weeks, we will have a Family Night party. It has yet to be determined, we will vote on the party at the initial goal-setting meeting. It’s always something our whole family can enjoy. We all strive for excellence, not perfection. So as long as we are moving closer to meeting our goals, we are successful.

My husband came up with the idea for each member of our family have a learning goal this summer, but I love the addition of spiritual and personal goals. Thank you for the charts! They are perfect!
This is awesome! Growing up my Summer was not usually full of “vacation” but more a time to unwind from school work all year and enjoy seeing family. My kids are being raised the same. We do small day trips occasionally but mostly we just unwind together. These are perfect for our Summers, thank you!!
