Keep things simple; how many times have we heard that? With June and summer, we’ve done just that with our 30-day simple fun challenge.
The goal is simple: do one fun activity every day for the whole month. You can mix and match activities on different days, or even double up on some days to give you other days off.
We’ve found that some of our favorite memories have come from very ordinary activities and moments. That was the inspiration behind this challenge.
Once you start getting creative with what’s nearby and around you, there’s no end to the fun you can have. It’s why we put together this collection of simple things to bring you joy, or this big list of simple feel-good ideas. The same also goes for our ’30 days of creating great memories’ challenge.

Above all else, just try to have fun this June. That’s what it’s all about! If you want the calendar, you can get it at the end of this article. It’s great to print off and have at home to keep giving you inspiration.
