“It’s sometimes challenging to find a new and unique summer activity for the kids. We want to be laid back and productive all at the same time.
This printable was meant to be small—a fun way for kids to create their own infused water recipes while we sipped something pretty together. But when my daughter came up with the name “Berry Berry Bluey” and insisted I try her concoction three times, I realized we’d created more than just a drink.
We’d made a memory.”
🥻 A Summer Printable That’s Actually Useful
This free download is a fill-in-the-blank recipe card where kids can:
- Name their own creation (like “Minty Monster” or “Sweet Unicorn”)
- List their ingredients and steps
- Rate the taste
- Record who they shared it with—Mom, Dad, the dog, or their teddy bear
It’s part creativity, part hydration, and part secret SEL—they’re learning to reflect, share, and be proud of something they made.

☀️ A Screen-Free Moment That Sticks
“I didn’t expect it to turn into a “let’s make another one!” moment. Or a full-on taste test. Or a conversation about how mint makes things feel cold even when they’re warm.
But that’s what makes slow activities like this worth it.
They stretch time in the best way.
And they help us reconnect—not just to each other, but to the moment we’re in.”
🍋 P.S. This Kids’ Printable Is Just One Page of a Bigger Story
