Shine Bright and Celebrate the Summer Solstice!

Celebrate the longest day of the year: June 21st!

The Summer Solstice marks the sun’s highest point in the sky, giving hours of daylight to enjoy.

It’s a fantastic opportunity for outdoor adventures - why not have a family picnic, go on a nature walk together, to the beach, or fly a kite in the park? Take a moment to admire the sunset together, and chat about how the sun’s journey changes the seasons.

If your children are interested in a bit of history, explore stories of ancient celebrations at Stonehenge to mark this special day or research other solstice traditions that take place across the globe. The Summer Solstice is a perfect reminder of the wonders of our natural world.
