Don’t forget: Your car has so much more to offer than easy transportation. And at a time when leaving the house isn’t as common as it used to be, that’s important to remember. Continue reading for some fun ways to use your car this summer that aren’t centered around driving.
Summer Car Activities
Drive-In Movie
Pulling into a drive-in movie theater feels like driving back into your childhood. This nostalgic passtime is the perfect way to spend a Friday night.
While it might seem that drive-ins may be few and far between these days, they are much more common than you would think. With a little research, you may find you only live a short distance away from a drive-in.
If you have young children, a drive-in could be the perfect solution to enjoying a family movie without disrupting other viewers. Pack your favorite movie snacks, some drinks, a few extra blankets, and enjoy the show.
Car Wash
A car wash is an easy and productive way to spend a hot afternoon. Your kids will enjoy an excuse to play in the water, and you’ll get to enjoy a sparkling clean car.
Grab a few buckets, a couple of sponges or a wool mitt, and a mild, car-safe detergent. Use this as a teaching opportunity to teach your kids how to safely and effectively wash a car. If you’re feeling especially productive, apply a wax after the car is clean and dry for an added layer of protection.
Star Gazing
Panoramic sunroofs provide the perfect opportunity to enjoy a night under the stars. If you live in the city, you may not get a chance to enjoy the full effect of the night sky very often.
For this activity, all you need to do is hop in the car with a few blankets and head out of range of the city lights. Check your local weather station to see if there is a meteor shower scheduled to occur in the next few weeks. Download a few stargazing apps, and enjoy a quiet night under the stars.
