The whole Kidlist team gets really excited about our annual summer bucket list.

Nothing feels more like summer than 4th of July fireworks and parades. Each town celebrates in their own family-friendly way, whether walking the streets in a patriotic parade or enjoying a colorful fireworks show at dusk. Grab a blanket, some lawn chairs, and your best patriotic gear to check out one of these awesome Independence Day celebrations with your family!…
The parade will begin at 10:00 a.m. at Lisle Junior High School and proceed down Main Street to School ending at the Lisle Veterans Memorial. There will be a short ceremony at the Memorial and then again at the Lisle Cemetery. A FREE community picnic will immediately follow on the grounds of The Museums at Lisle Station Park.
The sun is shining, band is playing, and carnival rides are spinning. It must mean summer festival time!

Most splash pads and spray parks are opening Memorial Day weekend, with exceptions noted in the comments under each….
