I have a confession- I love Olaf. Yes, Olaf the Snowman from Frozen. Squeaker is a fan too, though we try not to watch the full movie often. Mostly we just look on YouTube for Olaf clips. She does have a few Olaf toys so I thought- why not create an ultimate Olaf gift guide? I’m also going to include a few free resources in here because everyone loves free, right? This gift guide includes suggestions for adults too, but is mostly geared towards kids… or kids at heart, like myself.

I started thinking of stuff that our family enjoys doing now or stuff that I did as a child with my family. Other things on this list were inspired by things that happen in summer. What I ended up with was a list of 50 things to do in summer. I’m sure that I could have come up with more if I had really put my mind to it… but if I do, we’ll save that for another post.

Even if it means having a few sticky notes here and there, I know that it will help me in the long run. I used to use multiple planners but now I’m using one my main system that’s based off of my Neurodiverse Family Planner. Why You Should Make Lists and How To Write It Down If you’re like…
