There was a point in my summer when I was worried we weren&#8217;t doing enough, and I wasn&#8217;t giving my son enough summer experiences. I&#8217;m sure many parents feel the same way when they have to balance work and adventure. We did more exploring this summer and tried some new things, but of course explored areas we already love.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-63880 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2025\/01\/june-green--scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2025\/01\/june-green--scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2025\/01\/june-green--600x30.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2025\/01\/june-green--2000x100.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2025\/01\/june-green--768x39.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2025\/01\/june-green--1536x77.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2025\/01\/june-green--2048x103.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Although kids are still in school, as soon as the weather starts to warm up, we like to jump into our summer activities.

One of the rules was to not touch anything without asking first, and the kids did an amazing job respecting this and were able to touch quite a lot of things in the interactive rooms. We had a tour, and then the kids had time for lunch and to run around a little bit, and then they headed for a walk before the bus left.<\/p>\n<h3>The Summer We Picked Peonies at Black Fox<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-69435\" src=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2026\/09\/PXL_20260624_201806198.MP_-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"the summer we explored- picking peonies at black fox\" width=\"1922\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2026\/09\/PXL_20260624_201806198.MP_-scaled.jpg 1922w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2026\/09\/PXL_20260624_201806198.MP_-451x600.jpg 451w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2026\/09\/PXL_20260624_201806198.MP_-1502x2000.jpg 1502w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2026\/09\/PXL_20260624_201806198.MP_-768x1023.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2026\/09\/PXL_20260624_201806198.MP_-1153x1536.jpg 1153w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/saskatoon\/files\/2026\/09\/PXL_20260624_201806198.MP_-1538x2048.jpg 1538w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1922px) 100vw, 1922px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This one is a June tradition.
